Townlands Community Hospital
Henley-on-Thames, UK
overview
Inclusive community hospital bringing people together, whilst sensitive to environment
We designed and delivered the scheme which benefits the wider community by bringing an array of services together in an all-encompassing development. The community hospital specialises in rehabilitation and palliative care, and boasts an additional 18 beds, a relocated Sue Ryder hospice, a minor injuries unit, outpatients, therapies, and X-ray facilities.
We integrated the new scheme into a conservation area which posed some interesting challenges. Sensitive to its surroundings, the development gracefully and sympathetically incorporates neighbouring buildings and the landscape. As part of the wider AHR masterplan, the site also houses a 64-bed care home, run by the Order of St John.
