SWPH to relocate its Woodstock site
Planned move to 712 Peel Street would bring client service together in one accessible, centrally located building
The Southwestern Public Health (SWPH) Board of Health has decided to relocate its multi-building Woodstock operations to 712 Peel Street to serve Oxford County and surrounding regions from a single-site model. The move is anticipated for late summer 2027.
As a tenant, SWPH will occupy approximately half of the building, with the other half continuing to operate independently by the building’s owner.
SWPH currently operates from three separate addresses in Woodstock: 410 Buller Street, 93 Graham Street, and leased dental space at the Oxford County Community Health Centre. In 2023, the Board of Health formed a Special Building Ad Hoc Committee to explore options that would bring its services together, including new construction, leased space, and other available development properties. The Committee chose 712 Peel Street for its location, functionality, and value.
“This central site offers an efficient use of existing public sector space that is currently underused,” says Bernia Martin, Chair of the SWPH Board of Health. “It keeps public health services local, with a more practical approach to delivering those services to our clients."
Renovations will begin this fall, with an anticipated completion in late summer 2027. The health unit will share updates with the community as planning advances forward.
