Drone footage has captured the ongoing work to construct a hospice’s new multi-million pound wellbeing wing.
ellenor hospice in Coldharbour Road, Gravesend, began work on their new centre earlier in the year, hosting a breaking-the-ground ceremony in May.
Now the charity has partnered with marketing company Immersive to get a birds-eye-view of the progress of the construction.
Anna Wilson, ellenor’s Capital Build project lead said: “This innovative approach will provide an unprecedented view of the build and allow us to share the progress and impact of the project with our local community.
“The drone footage will also serve as a visual documentation that can be used for promotional materials, educational purposes, and future reference.
“The immersive aerial perspective will showcase the design elements, construction techniques and planned facilities of the Wellbeing Therapeutic Wing, highlighting the improvements it will bring to patients, families, and staff.”
Immersive’s Director Gavin Jones said: “Immersive are pleased to be partnering with ellenor to provide aerial photography and video to document the new build progress.
Using the latest drone technology, we will be regularly visiting to create imaging so everyone can be kept up to date with this exciting new project.”
The wellbeing wing forms part of ellenor’s commitment to providing care and support for patients, families, staff and volunteers.
The facility will feature new counselling rooms, upgraded play therapy rooms for children, and a spacious multipurpose area for therapeutic activities.
It will also serve as an educational hub for health and social care professionals offering specialised training in palliative and end of life care.
