@SurgeryHPB It links better there with the innovation hub, innovation zone and plans for old medical school with @scargroup. Also nice circularity with first Leeds OR which is the footprint it sits in.
It’s exciting though!
Huge team effort!! Great to see this finally incoming and in the build phase. Excited to see it in action and delivering on its promise.
Get in touch if interested.
