Integrated Health Projects (IHP), the joint venture between VINCI Building and Sir Robert McAlpine, has been awarded the contract to build a new cancer research facility at The Christie NHS Foundation Trust in Manchester, UK.
The project, worth £114 million, is funded by The Christie NHS Foundation Trust, The University of Manchester and Cancer Research UK.
Early works of construction began in August 2020 in the midst of the Covid-19 pandemic. They were carried out without any interruption to ongoing medical activity in other buildings, most particularly concerning the vibration-sensitive medical imaging centre.
The nine-storey, 27,000 sq. metre BREEAM Very Good-certified building is set to be handed over in December 2022. The standard-setting research center will ultimately be home to the United Kingdom’s largest team of scientists, doctors and healthcare staff.
Integrated Health Projects (IHP), the VINCI Building and Sir Robert McAlpine joint venture, has been appointed to deliver a new Children and Young Persons (CYP) Mental Healthcare facility for the South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust (SLaM).
Following the success of Sir Robert McAlpine’s Strong Foundations Grant last year in Manchester and Salford, we are delighted to launch new funds available for community and charity groups across 7 UK locations.
St Martin’s Centre has expressed their thanks for the £2k funding received from VINCI UK Foundation at the start of the pandemic.
