They're calling it the "Heart of Parkes" and it's pumping new life into not only an old building in our CBD but also a vital rural doctors program that's been running in town for three years now.

Evolution Mining has partnered with Charles Sturt University's School of Rural Medicine to provide a training space for the Central West Clinical School where students are studying to become doctors.

On Tuesday that vision became a reality when Evolution officially opened a new, transformed premises at 24-28 Currajong Street that houses the new Northparkes town office and, soon, its purpose-built training facility, and the rural doctors program.

Until now the CSU program, that helps students to remain living and studying in the bush and aims to address the shortage of doctors in regional areas, hasn't had a facility to fully operate out of.

It's a significant step forward for all involved.

Stay tuned, the full story and more coverage on this exciting venture is coming.
