Construction has commenced on a new £890,000 healthcare facility at Lincoln’s Birchwood Centre, marking a significant shift in healthcare delivery. The project will transform the existing space into a multi-purpose destination, integrating traditional pharmacy services with a broader range of health and wellness offerings.
Scheduled for completion later this year, the facility will occupy two adjacent units next to the Lincolnshire Co-op food store. It will feature five consultation rooms designed for privacy and comfort, offering services such as health checks, travel vaccinations, and private consultations. The revamped space will also accommodate podiatry services and provide room for healthcare providers to rent space and expand their services in the local area.
The new hub will integrate services from the existing Birchwood Pharmacy, ensuring a seamless transition for patients who will continue to collect prescriptions and access services without disruption. Additionally, the team from the Birchwood Medical Centre Pharmacy, formerly operated by Boots, is set to relocate to the new centre in 2026.
