We’re excited to share our ambitious plans to develop a new primary healthcare hub right in the heart of Warrington. This new development has been carefully designed to meet the growing demand for accessible and modern healthcare services in the region.
The innovative scheme will see us working alongside operational partners to deliver a robust private-sector primary care model, supporting a range of health services. These will include private GP consultations, diagnostic services, and non-invasive therapeutic treatments, all provided by specialist clinical tenants operating under direct agreements.
“This is an opportunity to respond to real community needs with a forward-thinking, sustainable solution,” says our CEO, Michael Warwick. “The primary care estate in Warrington is running at capacity, and there is an immediate requirement for high-quality, flexible clinical space. Our development addresses this shortfall and will be a fantastic facility for the area.”
Recent reviews of the NHS primary care infrastructure in Warrington have revealed a pressing need for increased healthcare capacity. GP practices across the borough are stretched to their limits, with little to no room to accommodate rising patient numbers or expand the range of services offered.
This pressure has been further intensified by a significant shortage of outpatient space among NHS providers, with current facilities falling well short of meeting growing demand. The issue has been recognised in wider sector development planning, highlighting the widespread and complexity of the challenge.
At the same time, many community healthcare services continue to function from outdated and deteriorating buildings, offering limited scope for refurbishment or expansion. This continues to constrain the delivery of modern, integrated care.
Our proposed healthcare hub is a strategic and timely solution. The development will provide a modern, flexible, and fully equipped environment designed to alleviate pressure on overstretched NHS facilities, while enhancing access to healthcare for the local population.
Flexibility is at the core of the hub’s design. Clinical spaces will be available for long-term, medium-term, or even hourly rental, supporting both independent practitioners and operational partners. The hub will also incorporate cutting-edge digital health technologies in line with evolving market trends.
With a targeted population uptake of just 0.48% - equating to 1,325 of Warrington’s 278,000 residents - the scheme is deliberately focused and scalable, prioritising quality over quantity in service delivery.
Development work is already underway, with completion scheduled for early 2026.
