Baby Health Centre reborn

Nevine Adlam will open Lambton Park Tea Rooms in the former Baby Health Centre building in coming months

The Lambton Memorial Baby Health Centre building on the Elder Street side of Lambton Park will get a new lease on life when Lambton Park Tea Rooms opens in by December. Local businesswoman Nevine Adlam and her husband Bruce, who also own and operate Memory Lane Antiques & Décor and The Vintage Rose Cafe in Elder Street, will branch out with an oldfashioned tearoom in the disused building. The building has been unoccupied for the two years since it was vacated by Hunter New England Health in September 2014. Lambton Residents Group raised concerns in mid2015 about such a community asset being left idle. Newcastle Council called for Expressions of Interest for adaptive re-use of the building in December last year. It is understood that Mrs Adlam was not initially the successful tenderer. The first choice tenderer withdrew from negotiations with Council. Chairperson of Lambton Residents Group Nicola Hirschhorn said the group was “Pleased to see that despite a delay the building will be put to use rather than left idle”. (continued page 2)
