Henry Brothers Construction, part of Northern Ireland-headquartered The Henry Group, has commenced refurbishment and expansion works on the £12 million state-of-the-art endoscopy unit at Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust’s (NUH) Queen’s Medical Centre (QMC).

Backed by an investment from NUH and NHS England, the project involves the reconfiguration and expansion of the existing unit, creating a significantly larger and more modern facility.

Henry Brothers will also increase clinical capacity by adding a third procedure room. This will enable a higher volume of complex endoscopic procedures to be performed each year.

"We have significant experience in the healthcare sector, so we are extremely pleased to be supporting the Trust and NHS England with its investment in capital projects in Nottingham."

The contract was awarded to Henry Brothers through the Pagabo Major Construction Works Framework and the new QMC endoscopy unit is scheduled to open in early 2026.
