GROWTH & MEDICAL CENTRE

HINKSEY LAKE, OXFORD

This project renovates Hinksey Medical Centre and establishes a Growth Centre for mental health and well-being. The redesigned Medical Centre offers better medical support and more space for the community. While the Growth Centre promotes mental health and well-being in a serene environment, the buildings address the flooding challenges in the community.
