It was brilliant to welcome LeeAnn Green, the NHS England Estates Delivery Lead for Lincolnshire and Nottinghamshire, to look around the new endoscopy unit we are building at Lincoln County Hospital.

The building is due to open to patients next summer. It will offer a modern, accessible facility for patients and also create a much-improved working environment for staff. It will provide state-of-the-art procedure rooms, as well as post-procedure rooms that include en-suite facilities which will improve patient experience.

The building will also offer a bright and spacious waiting room, as well as larger working areas for staff.

This week is World Antimicrobial Resistance Awareness Week! 💊

Play your part in combating resistance and keeping antibiotics available by:
• Only taking antibiotics prescribed for you
• Ask if your prescribed antibiotics are the preferred first-line treatment
• Prevent infections by washing your hands and getting vaccinated

It’s also really important that you:
• Don’t use antibiotics for common cold, flu and sore throats. They don’t treat viruses.
• Don’t share it with others
• Don’t save antibiotics for later

Make smart choices and protect life-saving medicines for everyone.

Skegness and Lincoln community diagnostic centres have been recognised by judges at the Building Better Healthcare Awards 2025, who crowned the joint building project as ‘gold’ winner of the CDC of the Year category. 👏

The Building Better Healthcare Awards celebrates some of the most innovative projects and products shaping the future of healthcare design, technology, and delivery nationally.

United Lincolnshire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust’s (ULTH) building partners, MTX Contracts, collected the award at a ceremony in London.

Alistair Nelson, Programme Director for CDC Estates Delivery at ULTH, said: “We are really proud that our Lincolnshire Community Diagnostic Centre Programme has been recognised with this award and offer our congratulations to our building partners, MTX Contracts.

“This was an ambitious £38million project to deliver two modern NHS facilities at the same time, approximately 40 miles apart. In fewer than 40 weeks, both spaces were transformed to create the fantastic clinical facilities we have today.

“Both community diagnostic centres are supporting us to deliver hundreds of NHS diagnostic tests each week, helping patients to be seen quickly and more conveniently, and providing the space and opportunity to explore how to deliver services in the community in a different way to our traditional hospital settings.

“The feedback from those who have attended continues to be overwhelmingly positive.”

The CDC of the Year award one of five special awards presented on the night, which honoured the standout achievements across all entries.

Steven Hartley, Director of MTX Contracts, said: “We’re delighted that our Lincolnshire Community Diagnostic Centres project has been named ‘Community Diagnostic Centre of the Year’. This recognition reflects the dedication and expertise of our project team and the Trust, who worked collaboratively to deliver these high-quality, patient-focused facilities on time and to budget.

“Community diagnostic centres are playing a vital role in transforming how patients access diagnostic services across the country, and MTX is proud to be contributing to this national effort.”

Our Neonatal teams in Lincoln and Boston supported day by wearing purple, and taking part in a ‘Ten for prem’ event to highlight the 1 in 10 babies born prematurely.💜

Staff walked or ran 1K in a relay to reach the 10k target, raising money for United Lincolnshire Hospitals Charity.
