North Ward Renovation Begins

Hinckley and Bosworth Community Hospital is shutting down its North Ward for 12 weeks starting June 29th to tackle long-standing drainage issues and transform the space into a safer, more therapeutic environment. With a £240,000 investment—mostly from the NHS and £16,000 from Raising Health—the ward will get dementia-friendly design, non-slip floors, better lighting, updated fixtures, and a modern fire alarm system. Scheduled for low-demand summer months, patient care remains uninterrupted as they’re moved to other local hospitals. The neighboring East Ward stays open, ensuring continuous care while the North Ward gets a much-needed upgrade for improved safety, comfort, and dignity.
