Isles of Scilly Integrated Health and Social Care Facility

Last week marked a major milestone for the Isles of Scilly Integrated Health and Social Care Facility.

The new Isles of Scilly Integrated Health and Social Care Facility represents a huge investment by the NHS into health and social care facilities and services for islanders.

Bluesky architects are providing lead architect and healthcare planning services for this project on behalf of Community 1st Cornwall and Cornwall Partnership NHS Foundation Trust.

The design for the Integrated Health and Social Care Facility includes both modular and traditional construction methods, with the design and material selection choices needed to consider the logistics of shipping transportation to the Island.

Premier Modular are the appointed modular construction partner. Despite initial challenges with the ship and weather, The Breb Countess ship successfully transported the 29 Premier Modular units from Hull to the Isles of Scilly by August 18th. Four landing crafts also arrived from Jersey and Penzance with essential equipment.

Over three days, teams worked tirelessly from dawn to late evening to unload the modules onto the island. This significant achievement reduces project risks and moves us closer to completion.

Bluesky Architects are incredibly proud to be a part of this incredible project. These milestones demonstrate the collaboration it requires from the whole project team and other local partners on the Island to make this a successful project.
