FWP MOVES AT SPEED TO DELIVER MASS
COVID VACCINATION CENTRES
Architecture, design and
masterplanning practice Frank
Whittle Partnership (FWP)
has moved at speed to create
community vaccination centres
across the North West in the fight
against the COVID-19 pandemic.
Its team of designers have rolled
out seven mass vaccination and
community vaccination centres across Lancashire and South Cumbria. The first,
at Blackburn’s Cathedral, is now up and running and with plans to vaccinate
around 2,000 people a day.
The Preston-based practice has also worked quickly to deliver mass
vaccination centres for the NHS in towns and cities across Lancashire and South
Cumbria as the roll-out gets underway across the North West as part of this
national endeavour.
The facilities have been designed and constructed from scratch in a matter of
weeks.
As well as designing the facilities, FWP has worked closely with the NHS teams
across Lancashire and South Cumbria and Lancashire and Cumbria Local
Resilience Forum to review locations and buildings and oversee all the work on
site. The sites are part of the National COVID-19 vaccination programme.
It has a successful track record of delivering NHS projects in the North West
over the last 25 years, including more recently the Life and Urgent Care centres
at Chorley and South Ribble Hospital; The Minerva Centre in Preston North End’s
Deepdale ground and the Oaklands Mental Health Facility in Lancaster.

and more recently BIM. With significant growth
since its Document Scanning and CAD service
beginnings, Sircle now delivers an extensive range
of services to international clients in healthcare,
education, hotel and leisure, retail and many
other sectors.
Chad Coombes,
Sales and Marketing
Director at Sircle,
said “The decision to
change the name to
Sircle was instigated by
the evolving breadth
of services we supply
to our clients. Our
‘Topscan’ name no
longer represented
what we do. Sircle
allows us to reach out
to new markets and
demonstrates our out
of the box approach to
delivering projects.”
Sircle ensures that their loyal customer base has
a full understanding of their estates, by providing
accurate information on the size, condition, usage
of their estate as well as the MEP services and
assets within them and their compliance with
current regulations. Recently, Sircle has added
project management and contract administration
to their portfolio and attracted new talent to their
staž , cementing their proposition as a one-stopshop
to their clients.
Sircle is proud to be RICS accredited, providing
clients with extra reassurance that works carried
out are done to a regulated standard and
within RICS guidelines. Due to being on several
procurement frameworks, appointing Sircle for
your project is easy.
