The newly opened health and wellness centre in downtown Regina, The Nest, is providing residents of the Queen City with resources to live healthier lives.
For Jackson Serna, the first sponsored athlete with The Nest, the facility offers him a place to train.
Serna happened upon The Nest while working for The Gathering Place New Beginnings, located in the same building. He told CTV News that the experience was enlightening.
“Honestly it gave me a new perspective of life and my perspective of like, how homeless people are treated and that they need help,” Serna told CTV News.
When Serna’s not training, he works with the Regina Treaty and Status Indians Services (RT/SIS).
The combination of physical and mental support as well as community outreach makes The Nest a hub for health, according to Serna.
“This is honestly a one of the kind of place,” he said.
