Whitegate Health Centre – Blackpool
About Whitegate Health Centre – Blackpool
Whitegate Health Centre is a community healthcare site in Blackpool run by Blackpool Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, offering dental, screening and mental health services from one building on Whitegate Drive. It operates as a general community health hub rather than a dedicated mental health or addiction centre.
The trust’s CQC ratings are published at provider level, so Whitegate Health Centre does not carry its own separate score; its mental health service sits within Blackpool Teaching Hospitals’ wider trust rating.

Whitegate Health Centre Mental Health Treatment Services
Mental health care at Whitegate is one strand among several community health services delivered from the building, alongside dental care and diagnostic screening, and is described in the trust’s records simply as being for everyone rather than targeted at a specific condition. There is no addiction-specific programme recorded at this site.
Given that mix, anyone being referred to the mental health service at Whitegate should ask the trust what that particular pathway involves, since the centre’s main identity is as a broader community health facility rather than a specialist mental health unit.

Is Treatment at Whitegate Health Centre Free?
Services delivered at Whitegate Health Centre are NHS-funded, provided by Blackpool Teaching Hospitals as part of general community healthcare commissioned publicly, so there is no fee for mental health, dental or screening appointments arranged through the centre. Nothing is charged to patients using NHS-commissioned care here.
Anyone seeking private mental health support instead, outside the NHS, would be looking at private market pricing rather than anything offered at Whitegate, and costs there vary by provider and type of care. The trust can confirm what’s available through this centre for a specific referral.
