Enhanced design process:.
Victorian-style gallery blocks with a warden’s desk at one end have been abandoned in favour of a staff station placed more centrally, in a way that encourages interaction rather than observation.. Main, central functions like dining, exercise equipment and access to medical care have been broken up and placed in each house block.Each block can contain a kitchen for communal cooking, classrooms, cardio gym equipment, a medicine point and laundry services, to create an environment more conducive to rehabilitation..
The prisons are designed with the ability to fine-tune security.The design allows operators the flexibility to use different houseblocks to ‘upgrade’ and ‘downgrade’ security as needed,to accommodate prisoners with different needs.. Current status.The first prison to adopt these design principles is the 1,680 place prison, HMP Five Wells, on the site of the former HMP Wellingborough, due for completion in 2021..
The house block design is the new standard that is being adopted across the planned prison estate expansion and will be used across several sites, both for new prisons and for adding capacity to existing sites.. Impact on wider industry.Through initiatives like the Construction Innovation Hub the UK government is investing significant time and effort into establishing standardised components specifications and even asset types.
