The Role of FHP
FHP designed the MEP services to this new purpose built community centre. The centre was primarily a GP practice which also offered minor surgery. The building also housed offices and a number of retail units.
The modern and spacious facilities offer a cohesive provision of medical and community services, accommodating GP practices and health services such as minor surgery, occupational therapy, dentistry, speech and language therapy, family planning and dietetics. Community resources include libraries, internet cafes, housing and welfare services and Sure Start centres. These buildings fulfil the local authority’s vision of one-stop community hubs, promoting social interaction.
