Multi-million pound plans to build “urgently needed” doctors surgeries in Kingsbury have been approved to cope with a growing number of new patients.
The empty patch of land in Stag Lane, Kingsbury, near the Village School will be transformed into a new centre including a pharmacy and 11 new flats.
The Fryent Medical Centre in Church Lane and the Willow Tree Doctors Surgery, which operate from small residential houses in Kingsbury, will relocate to the new centre to accommodate the growing need for improved health care facilities in the area.
The 11 flats are expected to be completed by winter 2014 and the medical centres will be built by summer 2015.
The housing will consist of one, two and three bedroom apartments for shared ownership, and priority will be given to social tenants, people on the housing register and first-time buyers.
Fryent Councillors have been working closely with the GP Practices and the wider NHS, Brent Council and the Network Housing Association. We are delighted that this scheme has finally been approved, this scheme delivers a solution with great benefits for Kingsbury and its residents and patients and adds much needed housing.
Cllr George Crane, Cllr Ruth Moher and Cllr Jim Moher.
