The new, purpose-built endoscopy unit at Bradford Royal Infirmary features eight procedure rooms and private pods each with its own en-suite bathroom, designed to enhance privacy, dignity and comfort before and after procedures.
The two-storey unit is physically linked to the main hospital building, enabling seamless access for inpatients, while also providing a separate entrance for outpatients. The building also incorporates flexibility to support growing demand for endoscopy services over time.

Working collaboratively with the wider project team, McBains provided NEC Supervisor services throughout the construction phase, supporting contract compliance, quality assurance and effective communication between stakeholders. The role was central to ensuring the project progressed in line with agreed outcomes while maintaining focus on patient needs and long-term value.
Sustainability has been embedded within the project, with energy-efficient lighting, photovoltaic panels and intelligent building management systems contributing to lower operational carbon emissions. Landscaping and green spaces have been introduced to support biodiversity, and the vast majority of construction waste was diverted from landfill.
The unit’s interior design creates a bright and welcoming environment that reflects the local community while supporting patient wellbeing.
