Kori Construction has been appointed by Cinnamon Care Collection to develop a £21m luxury care home in Leicester.
Construction on the 73-bed home in Thurnby is set to commence in December, with completion due in August 2026.
The project, managed by Fed3 Projects, will transform a brownfield site into a state-of-the-art facility featuring 10 premium care suites. Each suite will include an en suite wet room, a private living room, and a kitchenette.
The home, designed to achieve an EPC A rating, will be built using a traditional construction approach with pre-cast concrete plank floors and a brick and cladding façade.
The project is also committed to creating social and economic value within the local community through Kori Construction’s social value action plan delivering over £3m of social value. This will be accomplished through initiatives such as hiring locally, engaging with local suppliers, and offering apprenticeships and training opportunities to young people.
Kori Construction MD Jordan Connachie, said: “We are proud to partner with Cinnamon Care Collection on this much-needed development.”
“This care home will deliver a safe, comfortable, and luxurious environment for residents while revitalising a former landmark site in Thurnby.
“With first-class amenities, beautiful green views, and modern care facilities, this project will significantly enhance local care provision and benefit the wider community.
“The project will generate significant social value through local job creation and community engagement efforts.”
James Gant, development director of Cinnamon Care Collection, commented: “We are excited to bring this project to life with Kori Construction.
“There continues to be an urgent need across the UK to deliver luxury care homes and developing this existing brownfield site in an area that has a significant shortfall in care beds will go one step towards addressing this need.”
