Peak performance raises a healthy sum!
16 Aug 2024A team from Integrated Health Projects (IHP), our healthcare joint venture with VINCI Construction UK, pulled on their hiking boots to raise more than £6,500 for a hospital charity.
Integrated Health Projects (IHP), an alliance between VINCI Building and Sir Robert McAlpine, starts construction on Derbyshire Healthcare's new mental health facilities following two recent ground-breaking ceremonies.
The new facilities will each have 54 single, en-suite rooms, replacing the current facilities in Derby and Chesterfield which have dormitory accommodation, including green areas, therapy space and temperature-controlled rooms, helping to improve the safety, privacy and dignity of patients.
They are part of the Trust’s ambitious £150 million Making Room for Dignity programme– a government-funded programme to completely revamp the mental health inpatient (hospital) facilities in Derbyshire.
These facilities are being delivered by Integrated Health Projects (IHP), an alliance between Sir Robert McAlpine and VINCI Building.
As part of the initiative we are also delivering a new 14-bed psychiatric intensive care unit (PICU) at Kingsway Hospital in Derby. Derbyshire does not currently have a PICU and people who need this level of support currently have to travel outside of the county to access an appropriate bed.
It’s been an honour to witness these ground-breaking ceremonies alongside the Trust, guests, and my IHP colleagues who’ll be working hard over the coming months to bring these important projects to fruition. It’s rewarding to see the Trust’s vision of modern facilities that provide comfortable, dignified and therapeutic environments for their users, taking shape.
