History: The Fountain Centre was established in 1998 following the initial idea from three social/healthcare professionals Gail Maguire, Charlotte McDowell and Nicky Bracey. In 2001 they became a registered charity. Through fundraising initiatives and the donation of space from Royal Surrey County Hospital, the Fountain Centre was fully equipped with three treatment rooms, a lounge area, two counselling rooms, a kitchen and an office. In the first year of opening the centre had 150 visits per month and employed one full-time member of staff, two part-time and 25 volunteers. Owing to the huge success of the Fountain Centre and increasing demand for their services, in 2003 they obtained funding for a major building project which provided the centre with a large creative arts room and extra office space. In the same year the Supporters’ Club was launched and continues to meet throughout the year for both social and fundraising purposes. The Fountain Centre has constantly grown and developed. There are now approximately 95 volunteers, the majority of whom are qualified complementary therapists, 15 are counsellors and the remainder are administrative volunteers. The team now manages in excess of 650 visitors per month. Volunteers form the core of the Fountain Centre’s existence and without their help the centre would be unable to operate. In 2004 they received the prestigious Queen’s Award for Voluntary Services in recognition of the important work their team of volunteers deliver every day.
