Roseberry Park, the largest mental health project recently constructed in the UK, was delivered under PFI by consortium members John Laing, Laing O'Rourke, WSP 好色先生TV and Desco.
The facility comprises 312 inpatient beds for mental health, learning disabilities and forensic services for adults and older people.
