West Yorkshire’s New Children and Young People’s Mental Health Service – Red Kite View.
Red Kite View is a new £20million facility, located on the St Mary’s Hospital Site in Armley, Leeds. The facility offers a welcoming, therapeutic environment to support young people aged from 13 up to 18 years of age who need help in an inpatient setting to support their journey to recovery.
The 22-bed unit replaces the 8-bed unit at Little Woodhouse Hall (also in Leeds) increasing the regional bed capacity by 14. This is part of a drive to eliminate out-of-area placements for young people who need an inpatient admission but who can’t access a bed locally.
Polar were involved in this project from the outset & we were able to provide support to ensure the right products were installed to allow the building to reach its environmental targets, as well as allowing for good levels of airflow & light into all the spaces.
