Mitie Awarded New £33million Contract

Mitie has been awarded a new facilities management contract with Epsom and St Helier University Hospitals NHS Trust, valued at £33million for an initial five years, with the possibility of extending this by up to two years.

The contract will see the specialist healthcare team from Mitie’s Environmental + business deliver a wide range of services to the Trust including domestic cleaning, portering and helpdesk services at Epsom Hospital and patient catering, ward hostess and retail catering services at both the Epsom and St Helier sites.

“We are looking forward to working with Epsom and St Helier University Hospitals NHS Trust to continually improve patients’ experiences, by upholding the Trust’s commitment to maintaining clean, safe environments for patients, residents, staff and visitors alike.”
