A new state-of-the-art community day care centre has been opened in Flintshire, Wales.

The Flintshire Adult Day Care Centre will provide community day care facilities and social care services for vulnerable adults with varying degrees of learning disabilities. It has replaced the existing day centre which was falling into disrepair and has been designed with input from service users, their family members and staff.

Contractor Kier delivered the project, which also represented a major milestone for the firm as its 1000th project procured through both generations of the Scape National Minor Works frameworks.


Deane Hudson, frameworks director at Kier, commented: "We're thrilled to have handed over our 1000th Scape Minor Works project. The Flintshire Adult Day Care Centre will provide much-needed support to vulnerable adults in the area.

"We are proud to partner with Scape Group and continue to deliver value for money projects ranging from £50k to £4m for our public sector clients across the UK."

Mark Robinson, Scape Group chief executive, added: "We are very proud of the number of successful projects delivered via our National Minor Works frameworks. The 1,000th project is a real milestone for both Kier and Scape Group and I am very pleased that the Flintshire Adult Day Care Centre will give vulnerable adults access to opportunities that would not have been afforded to them without the new facility.

"Scape's Minor Works framework continues to deliver exceptional project outcomes whilst embedding social value at the heart, we recognise the importance of engaging with local communities to create sustainable socio-economic outcomes that last way beyond the projects' completion."
