Transforming our estate for the future

Estates are at the centre of the government’s plans for transforming the NHS. The NHS Long Term Plan outlines the need to ‘accelerate the redesign of patient care to future-proof the NHS for the decade ahead.’

We have big ambitions, such as becoming the world’s first net zero carbon national health system by 2040, setting global standards for healthcare providers, building 40 new state-of-the-art hospitals, and channelling significant additional investment into the wider acute, community and primary care to accelerate community-based care for patients.

The NHS Estate covers 25 million m² of hospital estate including acute, community and mental health care settings. With 1.4 million NHS staff working across 17,000 buildings, including 1,140 hospitals and 7,500 primary care sites, our c100k staff are responsible for maintaining and running all estate and facilities services across all of these sites.

With £4 billion of operational capital funding and annual expenditure of £10 billion across estates and facilities management, there’s scope to make real change across our estate.

The National Estates Capital and Transactions team provides expert support in respect of assurance of estates business cases (capital & subsidiary), PFI, ProCure 23 construction framework, capital input into capital strategies and spending review along with supporting the estates team in respect of broader activities where expert capital, assurance or transactions support is required.
