January 18, 2012

childrens hosp 2A new wing is being planned for The Children’s Hospital and you are invited to give comments on the six designs being considered. The new wing will include a more distinctive main entrance, a new out patients department for many specialties and three new wards with a higher number of single en-suite bed rooms. Car parking on site is also being considered as part of the scheme. Please note that the closing date for responses is Friday 20 January.

Six architects are competing to design the new wing and their six concepts can be viewed online, on the B floor corridor in the Hospital and in the Winter Gardens.  A panel including hospital staff, governors, parents and external advisors will be recommending a design to the Trust Board in February 2012. Any comments that you make will be taken into consideration by the panel.
