M&E Completion at North West Ambulance Station

When NWAS acquired new premises in Huyton, Liverpool, Meel Group was appointed to install the mechanical and electrical services.

The existing building required total refurbishment and conversion into a new ambulance station. The building was stripped back to its shell as part of the scheme.

Walter Carefoot & Sons acted as Principal Contractor, undertaking the builders’ works and Meel Group Projects were contracted to deliver the Mechanical & Electrical installation.

North West Ambulance Service NHS Trust now has a Huyton station with energy-efficient, fully compliant lighting and heating, and an integrated data infrastructure designed for the purpose.

We are very proud to have played a major part in delivering this project.
