Jane Boyes, Managing Director of Boyes Rees Architects commented: “We were delighted to be selected as the supply chain architect to Interserve Health Wales’ consortium under the Building for Wales framework.

“Our growing expertise in the healthcare sector has enabled us to demonstrate through the bid process our ability to design quality healthcare facilities and we are looking forward to seeing our work come to life during the construction process.”

Neil Holloman of Interserve, added: “”Interserve has been established in Wales for over 60 years and has created any important facilities for the community, including Neath Port Talbot Hospital in 2002. These project awards under the ‘Designed for Life: Building for Wales’ framework agreement will enable us to deliver further first-class hospitals and healthcare amenities for the people of Wales.”
