New Mail Centre Restaurant and Welfare Facilities

The Mail Centre Uplift Programme was essential to repair the fabric of existing buildings and improve the internal working environments for staff. New welfare spaces have been provided within every mail centre nationwide, along with improvements to offices, meeting rooms, catering, and toilets.

Royal Mail’s critical work operates 24/7, so work at each mail centre had to be undertaken safely on live sites. We helped each site contractor devise their works phasing programme to mitigate safety risks and minimise disruption to staff.

Every site has had a standby generator installed to upgrade its power infrastructure. This improves each site’s resilience to interruption from power cuts and will help maintain the continual processing of mail. All the lighting was upgraded to LED to minimise energy use.
