Plans have been submitted for a new £1.8 million therapy hub and ward refurbishment programme tat the The Royal Hospital for Neuro-disability (RHN) in South West London.

Designed by IBI Group, the proposals will create a new facility to help people with brain injuries experience rehabilitation, such as physiotherapy and occupational therapy.

Overall, the project aims to make the most out of RHN's existing estate to allow them to enhance the full range of therapy activities and further enable patients to complete their rehabilitation journey.

IBI Project Architect, Jenny Dunphy said: "Our architectural and interior plans form part of a phased upgrade of the hospital's existing estate. We have been working closely with the team at RHN to deliver an environment that will significantly enhance the patient experience and support staff to provide the best possible care for people living with neuro-disability."

Lynn Cunningham, Chief Operating Officer, at the RHN said: "We are delighted to be working with IBI Group. Their experience in healthcare and their willingness to totally embrace our vision has been exceptional. The collaboration between IBI and clinicians has been a perfect combination in shaping the design features."
