Second phase of Beswick Community Hub project at Manchester City’s Eithad Campus unveiled
Manchester City Council has revealed the second phase of the Beswick Community Hub project, will be a multi-disciplinary diagnostic, education, research and development facility.
The Manchester Institute of Health and Performance (MIHP) will be located in the Etihad Campus, adjacent to the recently opened City Football Academy.
The institute is the result of five years of planning and research by a partnership team made up of Manchester City Council, City Football Group and Sport England.
MIHP will be operated by HCA, the private healthcare company which manages facilities across the UK, including: 52 Alderley Road in Wilmslow, The Christie Clinic at Withington’s Christie Hospital and The ISEH in London – one of only nine IOC research centres worldwide specialising in the prevention of injury and protection of athlete health.
MIHP will deliver programmes for the local community as well as for elite athletes and will be supported and delivered by a team of highly skilled and specialised doctors, sports injury specialists, nurses, physiotherapists and healthcare researchers.
