At Treo Nua Community Community Centre in Portlaoise, we are always working to improve community healthcare services in Laois and support the needs of local residents. We are proud to now offer access to a new ophthalmology (eye care) clinic in partnership with the HSE.
This is a significant step for us as a community centre in Portlaoise, and for the individuals and families who rely on accessible, local services.
We Are Making Healthcare Services in Laois More Accessible
We know that accessing specialist healthcare services in Laois has not always been easy. Many people have had to travel long distances to Dublin or Athlone for appointments.
By introducing an eye clinic in Portlaoise at Treo Nua, we are helping to:
- Improve access to local healthcare services
- Reduce travel time for patients and families
- Support children and adults with essential ophthalmology care
This new ophthalmology service in Laois is being rolled out in phases, starting with children’s care and expanding to adult services. We are committed to growing this service to meet increasing demand in our community.
A Leading Family Community Centre in Laois
At Treo Nua, we are more than just a building; instead, we function as a dedicated family community centre in Laois that provides real, practical support.
We offer:
- Community support services in Portlaoise
- Training and education facilities
- Childcare services including preschool and afterschool care
- Meeting rooms for local organisations and events
- Printing, admin, and information services
As a trusted community support centre in Portlaoise, we also assist individuals who need help with forms, online services, housing applications, and accessing healthcare.
Supporting the Portlaoise Community Every Day
We believe that strong communities are built through connection and support. That’s why we continue to expand our community services in Portlaoise to meet local needs.
From healthcare to education and wellbeing, everything we offer is designed to have a lasting, positive impact across Laois.
Looking Ahead for Treo Nua Portlaoise
We are continuing to grow as a leading community centre in Laois, with plans to further expand our services.
One of our key priorities is reopening our café space, which we see as a central hub for connection within Treo Nua. Alongside new healthcare services like our HSE-supported eye clinic in Portlaoise, we are building a stronger, more connected community.
At Treo Nua, we are committed to providing more accessible, inclusive, and high-quality community and healthcare services in Portlaoise, now and into the future.
