The TRUST providing mental health services in Bolton has unveiled a newly refurbished women's ward.
Greater Manchester Mental Health Foundation Trust have spent £500,000 on the Borrowdale Ward in the Edenfield Centre, Prestwich.
The centre is a secure facility for men and women offering individualised care and treatment.
Matt Patterson, head of operations for specialist services said: "I'm so pleased to see the work done here at Borrowdale, especially on a personal level as this was the first ward I worked on as a qualified nurse.
"I am so proud of what has been achieved – it is a massive improvement."
There are further plans to add a family room to allow children to visit.
