Progress on Belper’s new health centre development – November 2024
Demolition of the old Belper Clinic has been completed as contractors clear the site ready for construction of a brand new £15m community health services facility for Belper.
Nottingham-based contractors Henry Brothers Construction are developing the site adjoining the old Babington Hospital on Derby Road, Belper. Plans for the development were approved by Amber Valley Borough Council in September 2023 and have been designed to be in keeping with the heritage of the local area.
Once completed, the new facilities will include 15 consulting rooms, six treatment rooms, a health education group room and other facilities, and will provide a range of services including community nursing, midwifery clinics, podiatry services, speech and language therapy, physiotherapy, continence advisory service, wound care and phlebotomy. Designed by architects Race Cottam Associates, it will accommodate all existing outpatient and clinical services provided at Babington Hospital.
