Meanwhile, the nomination for Social Project of the Year at the APM Awards acknowledged the project’s significant impact on the community. It has generated approximately £7.5m worth of social value, which included the creation of 58 local jobs, 171 apprenticeship weeks delivered, three career events, and community engagement through notice boards, and fundraising for local charities.
Designed by LSI Architects, the EMHC features public services occupying the ground floor, including a GP practice, outpatient services, a minor injury unit, phlebotomy, therapies, and social prescribing. A memorial garden area for conservation, and photovoltaic panels on the roof harnessing renewable energy on-site are also included.
The same scheme received a Silver award at the Considerate Constructors Scheme National Awards earlier this year.
