Laing Management Contracting worked on the construction of Chelsea and Westminster Hospital on behalf of the North West Thames Regional Health Authority between 1989 and 1993. The new teaching hospital was built on the site of the old St Stephens Hospital, which was demolished in the early months of 1989. The use of fast track construction techniques enabled the entire project to be completed in less than 5 years, and the hospital was officially opened by the Queen on 13 May 1993

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we witness a significant moment in history as Sir William Doughty presents Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II with a framed photograph of the remarkable Chelsea and Westminster Hospital. The image captures the official opening ceremony held at the hospital located on Fulham Road in Kensington and Chelsea, Greater London. During this time, Sir William Doughty served as the chairman of North West Thames Regional Health Authority, responsible for overseeing healthcare services in the region. This particular photograph was published in Laings monthly Team Spirit newsletter back in July 1993. The construction of Chelsea and Westminster Hospital was entrusted to Laing Management Contracting between 1989 and 1993. Built on the site where St Stephens Hospital once stood before its demolition early that year, this new teaching hospital became a symbol of progress and innovation. Thanks to fast track construction techniques employed by Laing Management Contracting, this ambitious project was completed within an impressive timeframe of less than five years. On May 13th, 1993, Queen Elizabeth II herself inaugurated the hospital during an esteemed ceremony filled with royalty and grandeur. This extraordinary print from Historic England Archive not only immortalizes a pivotal moment but also serves as a testament to human achievement and dedication towards providing exceptional healthcare facilities for generations to come.
