Kori Construction has been appointed to deliver a new care facility in Thurnby, Leicester.

The company was selected by Cinnamon Care Collection.

Contracts have been signed for the development of a £21 million, 73-bed luxury care home, with construction set to commence in December 2024 and completion anticipated in August 2026.

The project, managed by Construction Project Management Consultants Fed3 Projects, will transform an existing brownfield site into a state-of-the-art facility featuring 10 premium care suites.

Each suite will include a bedroom with an ensuite wet room, a private living room, and a kitchenette, offering residents both comfort and independence.

The home, designed to achieve an EPC A rating, will be built using a traditional construction approach with pre-cast concrete plank floors and a brick and cladding façade.

Residents will benefit from ensuite wet rooms as standard and a range of modern amenities, including dining and sitting rooms, a cinema, private dining areas, a hair salon, and a café.

The scheme will also include outdoor terraces and landscaped gardens, offering beautiful spaces for relaxation.

The project is also committed to creating social and economic value within the local community through Kori Constructions social value action plan delivering £3,233,737.06 of social value, ensuring that the economic benefits of the project are felt throughout the region.

This will be accomplished through initiatives such as hiring locally, engaging with local suppliers, and offering apprenticeships and training opportunities to young people.
