Midlands developer signals for record year

A Midlands contractor, Deeley Group, is bringing forward £123m worth of developments in the healthcare and later living sectors.

Based in Coventry, Deeley Group has expanded its presence in these sectors over the past five years.

Deeley’s latest collaboration with Anchor, a provider of specialist housing and care for the elderly in England, involves two new projects worth over £55m.

It includes a £35.9m development of 137 independent living apartments in Sutton Coldfield.

The company is also working on new schemes with Exemplar Health Care, including a £6m nursing home in Cannock and has ongoing projects with Housing 21 and Kingsley Healthcare Group.

Deeley Group is progressing with a £17m development with Preferred Homes in Telford and has secured another project in Nottingham for 73 apartments on the site of a former police station.

Eleanor Deeley, joint managing director of the Deeley Group, said: “We have seen significant growth in the healthcare and later living sectors and continue to deliver high-quality developments for clients which create lasting value.

“The quality of our work has led us to expand partnerships with care providers and operators, with value engineering ensuring these schemes are cost-effective while still maintaining the highest quality. We have benefitted from our flexibility to be able to deliver projects in a range of environments, whether that is being part of a mixed-use scheme, linked to a medical facility or creating a community.

“Deeley Group’s financial standing has also allowed us to fund projects where required, gives our clients the comfort that we will deliver and being a family-owned business enables quick decision-making to progress projects. We aim to be the developer of choice for healthcare and care schemes in the Midlands and surrounding areas.”
