This leaflet provides information about plans to move
QEF Neuro Rehabilitation Services from its current
location in Banstead, to a new state of the art centre at
Woodlands Road, Leatherhead. As colleagues, partners,
local residents, healthcare professionals, supporters and
families who are involved in the brain injury centre’s work,
the purpose of this consultation is to explain the proposal
and seek your views.
The current situation
Banstead Place is a Grade II* listed building built in 1790 with adjoining
buildings added more recently. Due to its age the maintenance bill has
risen each year and over the next five years will be
nearly a million pounds. Operating costs are also
very high, 40% more than QEF Independent Living
Services in Leatherhead.
Facilities such as the majority of clients’ rooms do
not have en suite toilets or bathrooms. The cost of upgrading rooms at
Banstead Place would be in the region of £2million.
The proposal
To continue to deliver the highest standard of care and therapies
QEF proposes a new state of the art 24 bedroom Care & Rehabilitation
Centre to be built on the new campus site at Woodlands Road,
Leatherhead, within which rehabilitation services can be provided.
All bedrooms would have en suite facilities and be located on the
ground floor with views of the gardens. There will be space for
specialist therapies, leisure and recreational facilities, and kitchen
and dining areas.
