Wharfedale Locality Hospital

UK

Wharfedale Locality Hospital was designed to replace the former accommodation and facilitate the delivery of clinically safe and effective healthcare services in Otley, England.

It is a 76-bed hospital, over an area of 9,500 m², and serves the areas of Wharfedale and North Leeds.

A key objective of the Wharfedale Hospital project was to take advantage of the location and setting and to provide an attractive environment and a patient-friendly building for the local community.

Bromsgrove Schools

UK

Worcestershire County Council took the decision to build seven new schools (two High Schools, two Middle Schools, and three First Schools) in the area of Bromsgrove, England, complete with community facilities on five sites. The new schools cater for approximately 1,740 pupils.

Having carried out a review of the schools in the Bromsgrove area of Worcestershire, the local county council decided to expand its education facilities.

The scheme proposed was to build seven new schools including two High schools, two Middle schools, and three First schools, with enhanced community facilities on five sites. Four of the seven schools were built on their existing sites and the remaining three schools were built on two new sites.

West Dunbartonshire Schools

UK

The West Dunbartonshire Schools project involved new-build replacement facilities for three secondary schools and one primary school in West Dunbartonshire, Scotland.

A showcase for 21st Century education facilities, Invesis’ work on the West Dunbartonshire Schools project demonstrated the group’s ability to deliver school buildings which make a huge and long-lasting contribution to the lives of local people.

Part of West Dunbartonshire’s “Building Our Future Schools” initiative, the project was partly inspired by the local council’s concern that the area’s communities had insufficient access to sports and leisure facilities.
