Royal College of Surgeons HQ gets topped-out

A topping-out ceremony has recently taken place at Lincoln’s Inn Fields in London where the contractor company Wates Construction are currently working to deliver the new Royal College of Surgeons headquarters

Going into more detail, the new Royal College of Surgeons headquarters has cost a total sum of £75M and will include a new modern learning facility, with the development itself designed to be environmentally-friendly due to it possessing photovoltaic panels, an abundance of insulation, being air tight, and containing infrastructure for alternative travel such as cycling.

A representative of the Royal College of Surgeons, Professor Alderson stated: “This marks an important milestone in transforming our treasured home and the world-famous Hunterian museum. We will create a modern, state-of-the-art headquarters for training the next generation of surgeons, and to continue our long history of supporting the exchange of learning and ideas on the future of surgery. The building has been designed to retain our rich surgical heritage, while embracing the cutting-edge future of modern surgery.

“The RCS has over 27,000 members across the UK and internationally. Our new building will be the nerve centre for the development and proliferation of the best surgical training techniques and practice in the world. Surgical skills taught here in the coming century, will radiate into operating theatres around the world, for the benefit of millions of patients.”

The Operations Director at Wates Construction London, Mark Craig added: “The RCS requires modernised facilities to help it continue improving surgical standards through education, research and clinical performance. At the same time, it has a tremendously rich heritage going back hundreds of years in central London, which it is important to preserve.

“This is just the type of challenging build that our team love, using modern methods of construction to balance proud history with the need for a facility fit for the 21st century. Best of all, once construction is complete, the RCS will have a world-class home for its community of trainees and surgeons, its museum and library, supporting its mission of driving forward the standard of surgical practice through years to come.”
