A free family health clinic will open in Palmerston St on Monday.
A joint initiative between Parentline and Radius Medical, the clinic will be in a wing of Parentline's building.
Parentline delivers social work and counselling services to vulnerable children and their families.
Parentline chief executive Cathy Holland said the organisation saw 500 children each year and given most of them were "from families of four or five" that provided a good population base for a family health centre to operate.
She said the clinic's proximity would create a symbiotic relationship with Parentline's clients. "We will be able to co-ordinate an appointment at the health centre after a child has been seen here."
