Thanet

Community Health Hub

Thanet Community Health Hub – a transformational change-of-use project bringing primary care, community health services, and diagnostic provision together under one roof.

Located adjacent to a busy shopping centre in Broadstairs, the hub occupies a former Canterbury Christ Church University building. It’s highly accessible setting places healthcare at the centre of the community it serves.

The vision for the Thanet Community Health Hub was clear: create a modern, adaptable healthcare environment that prioritises accessibility, operational efficiency, and patient experience. The project required close collaboration with three NHS organisations, each with distinct clinical, technical, and operational requirements.

The hub contains 36 consultation and examination rooms, GP services, a same-day access hub, physiotherapy, counselling and children’s services. There is a community diagnostic centre offering respiratory, podiatry and phlebotomy services, with the second floor accommodating staff administration and support spaces.
