Derbyshire County Council has appointed Mansell to develop the centres in Heanor and Darley Dale at a cost of approximately £16 million. The developments will provide residential and day care activities which promote health and well-being for older people, including those with dementia, as well as community facilities.

Both centres will incorporate the latest sustainability features including a storm water attenuation system, rainwater harvesting, air source heat pumps and eco–cell passenger lifts. The centre at Darley Dale will have a green roof with sedum matting, carefully designed to provide attractive habitats for wildlife.
Ian Taylor, Balfour Beatty Regional Managing Director, East Midlands, said: "We are delighted to have been awarded these two prestigious contracts to work with Derbyshire County Council and provide further specialised care facilities that can be enjoyed by local residents. We look forward to safely and efficiently delivering both projects for the community and investing in local people and businesses in doing so."
