A new Yorkshire centre which will improve the health and wellbeing of children and the elderly, and the safety of patients in hospitals and clinics, has taken another step forward with the submission of building plans for approval.
The Wolfson Centre for Applied Healthcare Research, to be established at Bradford Royal Infirmary, brings together researchers from the Universities of Leeds and Bradford with clinicians from Bradford Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust. It has been made possible thanks to a £1m award from national charity the Wolfson Foundation.
Now plans for the centre have been submitted to Bradford Council’s area planning panel, seeking formal approval to turn the ground-breaking research centre idea into a reality.
