peller Metcalfe has been contracted by Assura to build a new dementia-friendly medical
centre in Cinderford, Gloucestershire. The facility will be built on disused industrial land in Valley Road as a much-needed replacement for the town’s cramped and outdated health centre.
The two-storey, 1,477sq m building has been designed by Bundred and Goode and will feature an airy central atrium with two reception areas and separate wings on either side to house two GP practices. And additional consulting rooms and nurse treatment areas will enable the practices to offer a broader range of services.
Leading the way, the centre is set to be one of the first dementia-friendly surgeries in the country, with accessible signage and a layout specifically designed to take into account the needs of people with the condition.
It will also be built to the highest sustainability standards, with the entire south-facing roof covered in photovoltaic solar panels.
