Do you know of any exceptional 'Welcoming spaces' in hospitals or libraries

Hi there, my name is Julie Canals, and I am based at the Women's Welcome
Centre
<https://thewomens.org.au/patients-visitors/your-visit/womens-welcome-centre>
at the Royal Women's Hospital in Melbourne, Australia. Our centre provides
a warm and welcoming space for our patients, their families and carers and
others. They can come in and relax, find some high-quality, evidence-based
health information or browse through and borrow from our specialist library
collection.

My manager has been fortunate enough to receive a scholarship to visit
other 'welcoming spaces' in England, Sweden, the Netherlands and Canada.
She plans to travel to London, Rotterdam, Lund and Vancouver in March 2023.

Can you recommend any similar 'Welcoming spaces' in or around these cities?
If so, I'd love to hear from you. We are keen to learn from others and see
what is being done internationally. Please contact me if you have any
suggestions.
