Kori Construction Secures £47m of New Care Home Developments for Care UK and Barchester Healthcare

Kori Construction has strengthened its position within the UK’s care and later living sector after securing four new care home developments for long-standing clients Care UK and Barchester Healthcare.

The projects, with a combined value of £47 million, will deliver 274 new care beds across the South of England and continue Kori’s recent growth within the specialist care construction market.

The appointments build upon an established relationship with both operators, with Kori having previously delivered four projects for Barchester Healthcare and three for Care UK, alongside an additional Care UK scheme currently under construction.
