University Hospitals of Leicester NHS Trust Adds Ambulance Bay Shelters to its Site at Leicester Royal Infirmary
University Hospitals of Leicester NHS Trust at Leicester Royal Infirmary, Leicestershire wanted to source three ambulance bay canopies to ensure that the areas were a positive outdoor environment in bad weather where healthcare staff could help everyone to the best of their ability. They needed a bespoke solution that could be installed without stopping daily life there, and we were determined to complete the ideal project for them.
We made careful plans with the client to create their tailored models, for which they selected three Motiva Cantilever™ canopies. Thanks to its various available options for uprights, this product can suit a variety of clients who need easy access to shelter outside. We were able to install the structures while the site was still live, with minimal disruption to the important work there, and the reliable Opal roofs and Anthracite Grey steelwork both looked welcoming and could do their job excellently in rain and wind.
The NHS Trust team loves the ambulance bay shelters. Now, staff arriving at or leaving the site can immediately take cover with their vehicles and ensure that they and their patients aren’t bothered by the weather. This will make a small contribution to the essential wellbeing of both in such important and often demanding circumstances. The three bespoke designs match the facilities perfectly and the client was impressed by how we completed the unique live installation process.

Sherrier C of E Primary School in Lutterworth Add Multicoloured Playground Shelter
Sherrier C of E Primary School in Lutterworth, Leicestershire needed to find the perfect canopy for their institution, a busy and friendly school that promotes community spirit. They had several requirements to meet: it had to be enclosed, sport a set of doors, abut the building, and provide adequate shelter for outdoor playtimes, learning and storage.
A&S Landscape discussed potential models with the staff, and they decided that the Motiva Linear™ best fit their particular needs. The monopitch (asymmetric) roof would enable the canopy structure to work well next to their existing building, and they were attracted to the option of having a multicoloured design. Their playground shelter was built to specifications of 8860mm X 6000mm, with clear side panels and easily accessible doors to create the desired enclosed space. It also sported green steelwork and a vibrant polycarbonate roof, with shades including everything from Daffodil to Mandarin!
The pupils of Sherrier C of E Primary School love the bright, exciting design of their new outdoor facility – which can now be used as a learning or play area, or simply offer some more space to store equipment or teaching materials. Here at A&S Landscape, we have decades of experience in manufacturing and installing playground canopies for schools, and we always love to hear from potential new clients from any sector.
