First Look at the Future: The Queen Elizabeth Hospital King's Lynn Shows How New Hospital Could Look

The Queen Elizabeth King's Lynn Hospital NHS Foundation Trust will show the first designs of what the new hospital could look like at a series of public events, starting this week.

The new hospital will be built on the existing main car park, bringing it closer to Queen Elizabeth Way (A149).

The new design has been created by BDP, an international interdisciplinary practice of architects, engineers, designers and urbanists. BDP has a leading track record in the health and education sectors.

The new hospital is being developed using national guidance from the New Hospital Programme. As with the James Paget University Hospital NHS Foundation Trust, who announced plans for its own Hospital 2.0, The Queen Elizabeth King's Lynn Hospital NHS Foundation Trust is using the same standardised blueprint.

Local residents are being invited to attend information sessions to learn more about the design process the QEHKL team are undertaking.

There will be an opportunity to see what the new building could look like (subject to planning) and to find out more information on the work to make the new hospital a reality.

The events will be taking place at 6pm (doors open 5:45pm):

• Tuesday 10 June: Hunstanton Town Hall
• Thursday 12 June: King’s Lynn Town Hall
• Monday 16 June: Virtual event
• Wednesday 18 June: Swaffham Assembly Rooms
