The new health centre at Sunnyside Road North will provide facilities serving up to 12,500 people.<\/p>\n<p>The wider masterplan includes the provision of around 200 new one and two-bedroom apartment homes on land that is part of the home of Weston-super-Mare Rugby Club, and a site on the Recreation Ground earmarked for a new primary school to be provided by North Somerset Council.<\/p>\n<p>The proposed health centre, which will be built on part of the rugby club\u2019s car park, will contribute towards the cost of the first phase of new facilities at the rugby club, which has operated at The Rec for over 140 years.<\/p>\n<p>Set to be delivered by RED Construction Group\u2019s South West team, the project is being led by property developers and architects StudioHIVE together with its partner Atlas Land, working in partnership with North Somerset Council, the NHS and the rugby club.<\/p>\n<p>Planning consent was granted in November 2022. Work is expected to begin in October this year, with completion of phase 1- the 0.9-acre health centre site &#8211; expected in July 2027.<\/p>\n<p>James Howard, Development Director at StudioHIVE, said:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cIt\u2019s so gratifying to be able to start work on this project, which will be transformative for many people in Weston-super-Mare.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn conjunction with our public and private sector partners, we are commencing an important first building block in the delivery of the Weston Gateway, a new vision for this part of the town, with the construction of a state-of-the-art NHS facility. In the fullness of time, we will see further development with new homes and new facilities for the rugby club.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn addition, having been at the heart of the local community for 150 years, this will help provide a sustainable future for the rugby club and an important first step towards improving its facilities to enhance the experience for players and spectators alike.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have worked tirelessly with our partners, in particular North Somerset Council and the NHS, to make this bold vision a reality and we will continue to work with the council, the rugby club and other users of The Rec to minimise the impact of construction work.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Derek Quinn, Managing Director of RED South West, commented:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cOur team continues to go from strength to strength, and as we remain focused on delivering high-quality projects throughout the region, we also continue to expand our senior leadership team and expertise.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe sustained growth of RED South West is propelled by our ability to secure great projects like the Weston Health Hub, one we\u2019re proud to be a part of, because we will have a hand in a project that will lead to tangible, positive outcomes for our community.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Mike Bell, leader of North Somerset Council, said:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cPatients in Weston-super-Mare have been waiting a long time for this new, much needed and purpose built health centre.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt has been a complex project and we have been working hard behind the scenes with developers and the NHS to help make it happen. Not only will the centre improve healthcare, but it will do more to act early on health needs and provide better access to a wide range of care and support.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs ever, healthy communities are happy communities, which is North Somerset Council are committed to doing all we can deliver modern facilities and infrastructure, forming the building blocks local people need to thrive into the future. The opening of this new health centre in 2027 will be very welcome.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The development has also been welcomed by Weston-super-Mare MP Dan Aldridge. He said:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cThis is a huge step forward for Weston. For too long local people have been waiting for modern health facilities, and I\u2019m really pleased to see this project finally getting underway.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe new health centre will make a massive difference to patients, while the wider regeneration will bring new homes, investment, and secure the future of our much-loved rugby club. Weston deserves first-class facilities, and I\u2019ll keep fighting to make sure our town gets them.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Dr. Joanne Medhurst, Chief Medical Officer at NHS Bristol, North Somerset and South Gloucestershire Integrated Care Board, which is facilitating the project, said:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;We are delighted that the contracts have all been agreed and signed for the new health centre in Weston-super-Mare. This really is an exciting development for people in the town.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe know Weston has a growing population so strengthening neighbourhood health services and ensuring everyone has access to high-quality healthcare is a top priority for the NHS locally, and a significant part of our Healthy Weston programme of work. We are looking forward to seeing the building work begin.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Alex Larkin, Chair of Weston-super-Mare Rugby Football Club, said:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cIt is very appropriate that, as the club prepares to embark on its 150th season, the first phase of this development finally comes to fruition.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhile the first phase will not directly enhance the rugby club\u2019s facilities, it does mean that we are now able to move forward with the proposed redevelopment, which will see state-of-the-art\u00a0facilities for players, supporters and the community to enjoy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe proposal includes a new clubhouse overlooking the first team pitch, with a function and meeting room, a gym and physio facilities, plus a new suite of changing rooms for use by the club and the public.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOn behalf of the Weston-super-Mare Rugby Club, I thank James Howard and the team at StudioHIVE for their hard work and persistence for putting this very complex development deal together.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>StudioHIVE and StudioHIVE Architects are involved in some of the South West\u2019s other most high-profile development projects, including the creation of new offices, homes and student accommodation at the 12-acre, \u00a3500 million Silverthorne Lane regeneration site near Bristol Temple Meads station.<\/p>\n  <\/div>\r\n  <\/section><\/div><!-- .assembler_text-module.assembler_module.assembler_text-module_1.assembler_module_1..transparent --><\/div><!-- .assembler_module_area.assembler_module_area_1 --><\/div><!-- .assembler_default-group.assembler_module_group.assembler_default-group_1.assembler_module_group_1  -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u067e\u0647 \u0648\u06cc\u0633\u067c\u0646-\u0633\u067e\u0631-\u0645\u06cc\u0631 \u06a9\u06d0 \u062f \u069a\u0627\u0631 \u067e\u0647 \u0645\u0631\u06a9\u0632 \u06a9\u06d0 \u062f \u06f1\u06f5 \u0645\u06cc\u0644\u06cc\u0648\u0646\u0647 \u067e\u0648\u0646\u0689\u0647 \u067e\u0631\u0645\u062e\u062a\u06cc\u0627\u06cc\u064a \u067e\u0631\u0648\u0698\u06d0 \u062f \u06a9\u0627\u0631\u0648\u0646\u0648 \u062f \u067e\u06cc\u0644\u0648\u0644\u0648 \u0644\u067e\u0627\u0631\u0647 \u0642\u0631\u0627\u0631\u062f\u0627\u062f\u0648\u0646\u0647 \u062a\u0628\u0627\u062f\u0644\u0647 \u0634\u0648\u064a\u060c \u0686\u06d0 \u067e\u0647 \u06a9\u06d0 \u06cc\u0648 \u0646\u0648\u06cc \u0631\u0648\u063a\u062a\u06cc\u0627\u06cc\u064a \u0645\u0631\u06a9\u0632 \u0627\u0648 \u062f \u0639\u0645\u0648\u0645\u064a \u0689\u0627\u06a9\u067c\u0631 \u06a9\u0644\u06cc\u0646\u06cc\u06a9 \u0634\u0627\u0645\u0644 \u062f\u064a.  <\/p>","protected":false},"author":24,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[714,1],"tags":[813],"class_list":["post-42951","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-primary-care","category-uncategorized","tag-weston"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/bnssghealthiertogether.org.uk\/ps\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/42951","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/bnssghealthiertogether.org.uk\/ps\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/bnssghealthiertogether.org.uk\/ps\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bnssghealthiertogether.org.uk\/ps\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/24"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bnssghealthiertogether.org.uk\/ps\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=42951"}],"version-history":[{"count":8,"href":"https:\/\/bnssghealthiertogether.org.uk\/ps\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/42951\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":42981,"href":"https:\/\/bnssghealthiertogether.org.uk\/ps\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/42951\/revisions\/42981"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/bnssghealthiertogether.org.uk\/ps\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=42951"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bnssghealthiertogether.org.uk\/ps\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=42951"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bnssghealthiertogether.org.uk\/ps\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=42951"}],"curies":[{"name":"\u0689\u0628\u0644\u06cc\u0648 \u067e\u064a","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
