Successful planning application for first Surgical Hub

 

Proposed opening in late summer 2026

 

One Health Group plc (AIM: OHGR), an independent provider of NHS-funded
medical procedures, for patients referred through 'Patient Choice' for
treatment in Orthopaedics, Spine, General Surgery, Gynaecology and Urology,
announces that the planning application for its first Surgical Hub in
Scunthorpe, Lincolnshire, has been granted.

 

Construction work will commence in due course with a proposed opening in late
summer 2026. The surgical hub is expected to deliver significant additional
surgical operating capacity in regions with limited provision of NHS services.
The surgical hub model is characteristic of delivering efficient, high-volume
surgeries and is designed to maximise both patient outcomes and financial
returns.

Adam Binns, Chief Executive Officer, commented:

 

"Our ambition to develop a network of surgical hubs is key to our longer-term
accelerated growth strategy, supporting rising NHS demand and offering
surgical capacity growth in under resourced areas across the North of England
and the Midlands. We're delighted to confirm that our first site will be in
Scunthorpe, and that our first Surgical Hub there will bring both localised
specialist surgical services and employment to a much-deprived area.

 

"As reiterated in recent days, key to the government's 10-Year Health Plan is
delivering more care in the community away from NHS hospitals, this approach
has been a cornerstone of One Health's provision of care to NHS patients for
over 20 years through our community-based outreach clinic network and will be
complemented and enhanced with the addition of surgical hubs.

 

"The NHS is increasingly looking to independent providers for additional
support, and we are confident that the additional capacity provided by our
first Surgical Hub, will complement the ongoing organic growth driven by our
existing community-based outreach clinics and third party surgical operating
locations."

About One Health Group plc (www.onehealth.co.uk (http://www.onehealth.co.uk) )

One Health engages 80 NHS Consultants (excluding anaesthetists) who
sub-specialise in the various surgeries offered by the Company, through a
growing network of community-based outreach clinics and surgical operating
locations. One Health continues to deliver strong growth and, in the year, to
March 2025 provided much needed care to 17,020 new patients, through over
42,000 consultations and over 7,000 surgical procedures. One Health deploys
surgeons and anaesthetists that are mostly employed by the NHS, on a
subcontracted basis. It currently works with over 100 professionals across 9
independent hospitals and 37 outreach clinics. Within these community-based
outreach clinics all consultations and post operative physiotherapy is
delivered where required, reducing patient inconvenience and excess travel.

 

One Health's activities are focused on areas where NHS patient needs are
under-supplied by the local NHS service, population density is relatively high
and the level of private medical insurance or the ability to self-fund is
relatively low. Currently, the Company's activities are focused in Yorkshire,
Lincolnshire, Derbyshire, Nottinghamshire and Leicestershire. Revenue is
derived from over 60 NHS commissioning bodies in addition to contracts with
local NHS Hospital Trusts to transfer their internal waiting list patients to
One Health for quicker treatment.

 

One Health's business model has focused to date on four main areas:
orthopaedics, spine, general surgery and gynaecology, with urology introduced
at the end of FY25.

 

Spine and orthopaedics are particularly attractive areas for One Health as the
Directors believe that they benefit from powerful growth drivers in terms of
an ageing demographic, physical inactivity and an increasing proportion of the
population being categorised as obese. Within orthopaedics, the most common
surgeries performed by One Health are knee and hip replacements.
