Assura says GBP31 million UK cancer facility reaches financial close

1st Apr 2022 07:25

(Alliance News) - Assura PLC on Friday said it has reached financial close on a GBP31 million development funding deal for a cancer treatment centre in Guildford, England.

The care property investor said the site will be operated and let by cancer treatment firm Genesis Cancer Care UK Ltd.

"The building, situated adjacent to the Royal Surrey County Hospital, will provide cutting-edge oncology and cancer care services via a partnership agreement between GenesisCare and the Royal Surrey NHS Foundation Trust. The cancer centre will house two radiotherapy treatment bunkers as well as diagnostic facilities and a radiopharmacy facility for the provision of nuclear medicine imaging and treatment," Assura said.

Practical completion of the site, which will be built by Paris-based construction company Vinci SA, is scheduled for the fourth quarter of next year.

Assura shares were 0.7% higher at 67.35 pence each in London on Friday morning.
