Our Team

Norman has over 30 years experience across a wide range of clinical, planning and strategic management roles working within and in support of the NHS and care providers. His clinical background, combined with robust technical knowledge of the built environment – he was also a Head of Support (FM) Services and an  NHS Board’s Head of Capital Projects & Planning – make Norman uniquely qualified to support your health and social care planning needs.

To date, Norman has supported healthcare planning on over 100 major projects ranging from small scale facility refurbishment to major hospital development and multi-site master planning activity including health, social care, emergency services and housing.

Norman notes that there may be someone else out there who has worked as a clinician, clinical manager, project manager, general manager, modernisation consultant, Head of FM services and Head of Capital Projects in healthcare but if so he has yet to meet them! It’s not a normal career pathway he adds – but it does give you a terrific view of how the whole thing is meant to come together.

Maureen’s architectural career has spanned over twenty years to date, much of which has been focused on healthcare. Her experience encompasses all aspects of project delivery from front-end briefing to technical specification development. She consequently has a detailed understanding of how services operate and come together in the context of complex clinical and wider public sector environments.

Maureen also has extensive understanding of the NHS ADB system, its outputs and interfaces, including the generation of; schedules of accommodation; room data sheets; and CAD layouts.

In addition, Maureen has worked within healthcare planning, lead advisor and cost advisor teams on a range of framework contracts. This has allowed her to develop those skills that are essential to interpret, test and challenge client briefs in order to ensure they are fit for purpose and can be translated into appropriate technical specifications
