Money saved by Trust's move will be invested into care

Monday, 29 July 2024 at 11:55

Around ten per cent of Leicestershire Partnership NHS Trust's 6,500 staff will now be based at County Hall.

Leicestershire Partnership NHS Trust has moved its headquarters from Thurmaston to County Hall in Glenfield.

The move has taken place in stages during July.

Jean Knight, LPT’s deputy chief executive, said: “We had a presence in Thurmaston for about 20 years, but the opportunity to bring more of our staff together in close proximity was too good to miss out on.

“We have also managed to make a significant saving in rent, which will be invested back into direct patient care.

“We would like to thank our former landlords and the people of Thurmaston for hosting us so well over recent years.”

Around ten per cent of LPT’s 6,500 staff will now be based at County Hall. This will include the immunisation and vaccination team, our school nurse and health visitor helpline, community paediatric doctors, and administrative and support staff.

The Trust’s new address is:

Leicestershire Partnership NHS Trust
Room 100/110 Pen Lloyd Building
County Hall
Leicester Road
Glenfield
Leicestershire
LE3 8RA

The switchboard number is: 0116 225 6000.

All other email addresses and phone contacts remain the same.
