The services will be delivered by Kier Places, a Kier business which delivers workplace, residential, and building solutions in places where people live and work across the UK.

The Velindre Cancer Centre is part of Velindre University NHS Trust’s Transforming Cancer Services in South East Wales Programme, that has been procured under the Welsh Government Mutual Investment Model. It aims to provide patients and carers with high-quality and sustainable services, delivering the most effective treatments while also leading national and international education, research and innovation in cancer patient care.

The hospital, which targets BREEAM 'Excellent', is designed to be all-electric, supporting low energy demand and low operational carbon.
