The new Catterick Integrated Care Campus in England, UK, has reached a construction milestone with the completion of its steel frame.
Spanning more than 12,000m², the campus will serve both military personnel from the Catterick Garrison and the public, marking the first large-scale integration of Ministry of Defence (MOD) and National Health Service (NHS) medical services.
The topping-out ceremony was attended by representatives from the MOD’s Defence Infrastructure Organisation (DIO) and Defence Medical Services, the NHS, contractor Tilbury Douglas, and technical support provider AECOM.
DIO Major Projects and Programmes UK Strategic Command lead David Salmond said: “We’re pleased to reach this significant construction milestone for this groundbreaking new facility. The success of the project to date is thanks to the working relationships built between the MOD, NHS, AECOM and Tilbury Douglas, and we look forward to those relationships continuing to bear fruit as we focus on the next stage of construction.”
Tilbury Douglas began construction earlier this year and has now finished the supporting structure.
The next phase involves adding external cladding, curtain walls, and the installation of the roof.

By GlobalDataThe building is expected to be weatherproof by early 2025, at which point interior work will commence.
The campus is designed to meet both MOD and NHS standards.
Additional features include 600m² of solar panels, air-source heat pumps, electric vehicle charging points, low-energy lighting, and intelligent building management systems to optimise energy usage.
The project is expected to be completed in early 2026, with medical services anticipated to move in later that year.
Last year, Tilbury Douglas finished building a biophilic primary school, in Derby, on behalf of the UK’s Department for Education.
