Clattebridge Hospital at a glance

The specialist 11-storey hospital has 110-inpatient beds and delivers a wide range of highly-specialist cancer care including pioneering chemotherapy, immunotherapy, gene therapy, haemato-oncology and radiotherapy.

The building has been specially designed to enhance wellbeing, healing and recovery through a close connection to nature and a sense of light and space, despite its city-centre location.

“Jenkinsons were successfully appointed after a mini competition process via the SBS Framework. The products offered were of the required high-level specification requested for Clatterbridge Cancer Centre NHS Foundation Trust. As part of the furniture requirements for the new 11 storey Cancer Centre, high level boutique furniture was required to aid patient recovery akin to a hotel setting rather than hospital feel. The furniture required for the building comprised of large multi person desk configurations, task and meeting furniture and staff breakout areas. Significantly there were several large and complex waiting areas that required redesign with client engagement and 3D rendering to visualise the anticipated outcome. Whilst a challenging programme this intensified due to the global pandemic and a lot of uncertainty around programme and deliveries. With an incredibly short commissioning programme coupled with the pandemic, H Jenkinson were outstanding on this project in completing the full installations to programme. The success of the project has led to further work being awarded including a large open plan office space for approximately 100 desks, as well as bistro and breakout and meeting areas. ”
