London Road Modernisation
Planning permission approved for London Road modernisation
Canterbury City Council has approved planning permission for Pilgrims Hospices' plans to modernise its London Road site in Canterbury. This is an important milestone in our commitment to securing the long-term future of hospice care in the heart of Canterbury.
The project will transform our existing facilities, creating a more modern, efficient and welcoming environment for patients, their families, staff and volunteers, while allowing Pilgrims Hospices to continue its long-standing presence at London Road.
We will now move forward with the next stages of planning and preparation for the project.
We will continue to share updates on the plans and progress through this website.
Our future plans
Our decision to remain at London Road and invest in modernising our existing buildings reflects our commitment to providing high-quality, compassionate hospice care in Canterbury for generations to come. The approved plans include rebuilding the main hospice inpatient unit at the rear of the site, alongside improvements to the existing Victorian properties facing London Road and the wider site.
These will be the most significant improvements to our London Road facilities in many years.
