Build is now officially underway on a state-of-the-art new £11m care facility on the site of the former Springbrook pub, off Knutsford Road in Grappenhall, with practical completion confirmed for March 2023.
Altrincham-based care home operator New Care started remediation works on the site towards the end of last year, focussed on isolating the services and demolishing the existing pub building to allow groundworks to commence.
Over the last few weeks work has gathered pace; the sheet piles, foundations and sub structure brickwork and ground floor are all in place and scaffolding has been erected ready for the installation of the metal frame to commence this month.
Helping to increase the provision of quality beds in the area, New Care’s expertly designed ‘new generation’ care facility is purpose-built to deliver the highest standards of care in a safe and stylish home-from-home environment featuring fully furnished en suite bedrooms, communal lounges and dining rooms, spa-assisted bathrooms, a hair salon, nail bar and beautifully landscaped front and rear gardens.
When complete, the privately-funded 70-bed facility will provide an outstanding clinical offering including residential, nursing and dementia care. Residents will receive individual person-centred compassionate care enhanced with a meaningful programme of daily activities from a permanent and highly skilled professional team.
Commissioning director at New Care, Dawn Collett, said: “Work in Grappenhall is going really well, the foundations are in and brickwork has commenced meaning that locals will soon start to see the building appear above the hoarding. Over the course of the next 12 months the building will really start to take shape and we look forward to welcoming our first residents to their beautiful new home in March 2023.”
Grappenhall is the latest new care facility in the area for New Care; the operator also has a second care home under construction in Lymm and homes in Wilmslow and Adel due to complete this year. Principal contractor, McGoff Construction (New Care’s sister company and also part of the McGoff Group), is managing all build programmes.
One of the UK’s leading care home operators, New Care’s portfolio of purpose-built ‘new generation’ care centres is fast gaining an enviable reputation for outstanding care that is second to none. For further information on New Care, please call 0161 927 2940 or visit www.newcarehomes.com.
