Physiotherapy provider expand to Sunderland Enterprise Park and create 6 new jobs

North East physiotherapy and rehabilitation provider PhysioWorld have taken a lease on a new office building and secured planning permission for a change of use as part of their continued expansion.

The company have now expanded to Sunderland Enterprise Park, following a move facilitated by property consultants Naylors Chartered Surveyors.

PhysioWorld, who were represented by Mark Wright of Birmingham based Trebor Developments, are reportedly a rapidly growing national provider of physiotherapy treatment and rehabilitation with over 150 clinics across the UK.

The company were previously renting one treatment room in the Silksworth Leisure Centre, although this move will allow them to have multiple treatment rooms and take on up to 6 new members of staff, in what is a significant expansion of their Sunderland operations.

Contractors are currently on site re-fitting the premises and the new clinic is expected to be complete and open for business next week.

Sam Elliot of Naylors Chartered Surveyors, who secured the letting, said: “PhysioWorld’s new premises comprise a single storey 2,300 sq ft office suite with its own dedicated parking, which will provide them with the flexibility they need to create a bespoke clinic.

“The property is located on Colima Avenue, the main thoroughfare of Sunderland Enterprise Park, which is one of the City’s most successful business locations making it an excellent base.”

Managing director of PhysioWorld, Kevin Doyle, said: “This is an ideal property for us as it is in a convenient location for our customers, that is easy to find with parking on site and we are pleased that it was supported by the City Council in granting planning permission for change of use.

“The new facility will comprise seven private treatment rooms plus a rehab studio to allow us to expand our customer base”.
