McLaren awarded £28m East London health centre project
Key points
The hub has been developed by partners across north east London to provide a base for a team of health and care professionals delivering a new model of integrated care. It will serve people in the boroughs of Havering, Redbridge and Barking and Dagenham.
The hub will also provide space for local voluntary and community groups and includes a community café, multi-purpose education and meeting spaces and a sensory, dementia-friendly communal garden.
At the site off Suttons Lane in Hornchurch, contractors already have carried out clearance works including site surveys and asbestos removal, parts of the old St George’s Hospital building have been demolished and the grounds have been levelled to prepare the site for the new centre.
The hub is scheduled for completion early 2024.
