North East engineering firm RWO has won a six-figure contract to support construction of a new care home and assisted living facility in North Yorkshire.
RWO will provide civil and structural engineering services for the £8m extra care development of 12 bungalows and 70 fully equipped apartments in Guisborough. Construction will be carried out by Countryside Partnership North East for care home operator Housing 21.
The development will include six pairs of semi-detached units, each featuring a private garden area and off-street parking. A mix of one- and two-bedroomed self-contained apartments are also being designed and engineered by RWO. These will provide independent living along with a café/bistro, hair salon, communal lounge, and gardens, among other communal facilities.
The work will also see RWO provide designs for both civil and structural engineering associated with the development.
RWO MD Ross Oakley said: “Demand for care homes and assisted living accommodation is strong. So, it’s a real privilege to work with Countryside Partnerships and Housing 21 on this latest scheme and to deliver on their vision for the highest quality living spaces for residents.”
