Saving £1.5 million for the NHS by vacating under-used property

NHS Property Services (NHSPS) identified that the space wasn’t fully used, with two floors already handed back but still not achieving optimum space utilisation. However, with four to five years left on the lease and no break option, it was difficult to relocate.

By coming out of the original lease early and moving to smaller site, NHSPS helped the NHS save £1.5 million, in addition to the competitive incentives package on the new lease for the CCG.
