Leicester General Hospital Diabetes Centre Leicester, UK

The three-storey extension provided new offices, staff facilities, kitchens and clinical research rooms to support the Centre’s growing team.

Located within the existing hospital’s H-shaped footprint, the extension was carefully designed to maximise space and natural light while respecting the scale of the original building.

Silver profiled steel cladding gave the building a contemporary identity, while full-height windows created a prominent new frontage.

Working with Stepnell and Gleeds, SGP used a federated Revit model to support coordination and help deliver the project within 52 weeks.

“Fantastic to see this project reach completion. We are delighted with the finished result and grateful to everyone involved in bringing the vision to life. These facilities will significantly increase our capacity to deliver world-leading research, enabling more studies, more participants, and greater opportunities to translate research into improved care for people living with diabetes and other long-term conditions.”
