Great Ormond Street 2000 & Beyond
Client: Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children NHS Trust
Project Value: £9.3 million
Construction Period: 16 months

The design and construction of a 4,000m2 facility, approximately two-thirds new build and one-third refurbishment. The new building, on 7 levels, will largely provide education and training facilities. The remaining levels will comprise 8 transitional care flats and 30 patient hotel accommodation suites, the latter being used for short stays, thus contributing to the NHS objective of increasing the amount of hospital activity that can be carried out under outpatient or day care.

The site is in a terrace in a busy central London street. Thus being a "Considerate Contractor" is a prime requirement.

The design development is effectively complete. The works were started in December 2002 and are due for completion in May 2004. To date the value of work completed is approximately £3.0m.
