Stirling Medical delivered a full FF&E and bespoke joinery package for the Bracknell Forest Centre for Health—a purpose-built, three-storey healthcare facility providing 2,323 sqm of clinical space.
Designed as a centralised hub for integrated care, the centre brings together two major GP practices—Evergreen Practice and Forest Health Group—alongside physical and mental health community services for NHS Berkshire Healthcare and Frimley Health trusts.
Our scope focused on creating robust, compliant, and highly functional clinical environments—balancing durability and hygiene requirements with a welcoming, patient-friendly aesthetic. The solution was also developed to align with the project’s modular construction approach, ensuring efficient installation and long-term performance.
The building was delivered using a modern modular construction methodology, with primary structural units manufactured off-site and installed rapidly on location to meet a compressed programme.
This approach required early coordination and precision in design, ensuring that all internal elements—including joinery and FF&E—integrated seamlessly within pre-fabricated room layouts.
The completed facility now provides environmentally conscious, future-ready healthcare space, designed to support patients of all ages while strengthening community-based care provision through co-located services.
We supplied purpose-designed wall and base cabinetry tailored to healthcare workflows. Finished in Green Smoke doors with Clinical Light Grey carcasses, the units provide:
Reception desks were custom-designed to meet the operational demands of high-traffic patient areas while aligning with the interior design intent. Considerations included:
All joinery elements were specified and manufactured for intensive daily use, prioritising:
We worked closely with Darwin Group throughout the project, aligning our joinery designs with their modular building system.
By coordinating at an early stage, we ensured that all furniture integrated precisely with factory-built room modules—allowing for rapid, efficient installation once units arrived on site. This approach reduced programme time and minimised disruption during fit-out.
Material selection was driven by clinical performance, durability, and visual impact.
The Centre for Health was developed to replace outdated facilities that were restricting service delivery. Existing infrastructure struggled to meet growing demand, resulting in limited capacity and fragmented care provision.
The key challenge was to create a modern, integrated healthcare environment that could:
Our integrated joinery and FF&E solution played a key role in supporting the centre’s operational goals:
