Dungannon care home investing £450,000 to build 10 new rooms

Collegelands Private Nursing Home on Lislasly Road is reported to be adding 10 new rooms to its existing 20 - in response to the demand for more space.

The investment is being financed by Ulster Bank.

Ulster Bank’s Leona McNicholl added: “Healthcare is a fast-growing sector of the economy and it is an important sector for Ulster Bank. The owners of Collegelands took the decision to invest in their business to meet client demand.”
