Jefferson Sheard Architects were
commissioned by HBD and Brainkind
(Formerly The Disabilities Trust) to develop
the design for a new Neurological Centre /
Acquired Brain Injury (ABI) Hospital for the
treatment and rehabilitation of patients
requiring specialist brain injury and mental
health care.
The development enables the relocation
of York House, providing a new state of the
art facility on the former Terry’s Chocolate
Works site. The new facility meets the
complex operational needs of The Trust
and maintains its 20-year presence in
York, retaining 40 patient beds and 145
healthcare jobs in the city.
The building has achieved BREEAM
Excellent - with an additional 28%
reduction in carbon emissions over Part L.
It is also the first Hospital in the UK to
integrate the Amazon Alexa’s services for
voice control of curtains, lights, heating and
cooling, integration with care plan, calling
relatives and controlling in room devices.
