John Laing delivers this LIFT project, like others elsewhere, through Primary Plus, its joint venture with the Bank of Scotland. Through ExcellCare it is in the process of designing, constructing and financing 12 health centres, which between them will provide GP surgeries, dentists, pharmacies and community services. Some also provide leisure, library, council and café facilities as well, with one even providing a minor operations suite.

Six of the centres are now fully operational, with another part-operational and the final five are due for completion summer / autumn 2007 (2) and mid 2008 (3). This £75 million project is mainly financed under a 25 year period, with three of the centres extending to 30 years. John Laing Integrated Services provides hard facilities management.
