We have a highly successful track record in obtaining planning permission for major new hospitals and of working with Hospital, Mental Health and Primary Care Trusts, PFI providers and private healthcare companies. We also have extensive experience of dealing with listed hospital buildings and of the disposal of surplus healthcare estate for alternative forms of development which generate value for health trusts.
