Currie & Brown joined Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children NHS Foundation Trust, GOSH Charity and John Sisk & Son to celebrate the signing of the construction contract and start of works to deliver a new Children’s Cancer Centre.
The event marked a major milestone on Great Ormond Street Hospital’s journey towards the redevelopment of the Frontage site. This will provide a world-class research and transformational treatment facility for children with rare and complex cancers.
Our team has provided project management, healthcare planning and cost consultancy to help ensure that the Trust secure full clinical and external support for the project. We have drawn on our experience of managing large scale, complex healthcare projects with dedicated healthcare professionals to support the Trust reach this significant milestone.
The development is supported by the GOSH Charity through the ‘Build it. Beat it.’ campaign, which represents the biggest and most ambitious fundraising campaign in its history.
We are incredibly proud to be a part of this important project helping children and families affected by cancer and supporting the staff who provide such amazing care at Great Ormond Street Hospital.

“Signing the main contract for this important project, which will benefit every child who comes to GOSH, has been a significant task, involving a great many stakeholders and organisations. Thank you to the team at Currie & Brown who helped make this happen. Their deep expertise and experience managing complex healthcare projects has been extremely valuable and helped ensure we achieved this important milestone.”
David Keith, Senior Director, Currie & Brown, comments:
“Schemes of this scale and complexity naturally span several years and can be impacted by numerous risk factors. It has been a privilege to help Great Ormond Street Hospital mitigate and navigate risks to a successful conclusion of the pre-construction phase on this project. The team look forward to continuing our work on the Children’s Cancer Centre through the construction phase.”
