The creation of Warneford Park will represent a transformational investment in excess of £750 million over 10 years.
Carefully phased delivery of the new campus will ensure vital healthcare, research and teaching programmes continue uninterrupted throughout construction.
Phase 1
Construction will begin on the new Warneford Hospital and the Radcliffe Research Building.
Once complete, patients will relocate from the old hospital into the modern facilities.
Oxford’s Department of Psychiatry will join with other research activity in neuroscience, data science, and related aspects of biomedical and clinical research alongside private sector pharmaceutical and biotech research companies.
Phase 2
Once the modern facilities are operational, restoration of the original Regency hospital will commence to provide the core facilities and teaching spaces of Radcliffe College.
New build student accommodation blocks providing rooms for 250 students, with some units for families, will complete the campus vision restoring the historic landscape setting and preserving architectural heritage.
Essential services protected
- The recently built Highfield and Meadow Units will remain unchanged, continuing their vital inpatient mental health care for children and adolescents (CAMHS).
- The mental health charity SANE will continue to occupy a flagship building on site supporting research into the causes
of mental illness and the discovery of innovative treatments.
Warneford Meadow, the 18 acre site to the south of Warneford Park with Town Green Status, will remain untouched and will continue to be preserved for the use of the community.
