A seamless decant to temporary accommodation during the build period

Project Brief: The Gillies & Overbridge Practice appointed Ashley House to provide new premises to accommodate a 7 GP Practice together with PCT Clinical Services, Out of Hours service, Dental Practice, Red Cross and Pharmacy.

Project Solution: After a long unsuccessful search for a suitable site, the GPs negotiated to purchase their existing premises from HA. Planning consent was gained for a refurbish and some
redevelopment of the building. The Practice decanted into temporary buildings on a site rented from the local Council, to the rear of the existing HC. The new building has an internal courtyard,
and features a two storey height waiting area with a floor at mezzanine level, leading off to a wing for Private patients.

Project solution: The building is of a high specification with a feature internal courtyard, a two storey height waiting area and is fully air conditioned throughout. The building also houses a dentist
surgery, pharmacy and chiropractor.

Testimonials “all the staff had worked together to move out of the HC into the temporary buildings. We were amazed by the space, it was all lovely and clean and we enjoyed working together
in close quarters while our building was being redeveloped. All in all it was a great success!”
