Corstorphine & Wright has submitted plans for the Rob Burrow Centre for Motor Neurone Disease (MND) at Seacroft Hospital.
The UK-based architectural practice was appointed by Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust in July 2023 and the plans are now awaiting approval by Leeds City Council.
The planning application followed extensive stakeholder and engagement sessions to create a design that meets the vision of all those involved, including clinical staff, patients, and the wider MND community, as well as the Burrow family.
The brand-new centre will see all MND services housed under one roof
The brand-new centre will see all MND services housed under one roof and will create a hub of innovation, education and excellence in the treatment for MND for the region, bringing together holistic patient-centred care in a purpose-built environment.
Toby Ingle, Associate Director at Corstorphine & Wright, said: “Engaging with what the community wants the new centre to be has fundamentally informed how we have designed the new building, from its location on the site and the materials we will build it from, to the furniture that we will specify and the colours and textures we will weave throughout the building and landscape.”
