Article 4 August 2021 Mitie Care & Custody awarded 8-year contract to manage Dungavel immigration removal centre on behalf of the Home Office The contract includes significant improvements to the previous contract including more staff on site to improve safety and welfare of both residents and staff, a dedicated welfare team available daily to focus on residents’ needs and the ability to increase or decrease the number of residents being housed at the IRC at one time. These improvements are just one part of the Home Office strategy to modernise the immigration detention estate and create a better, safer environment for those in our care in line with Stephen Shaw’s reviews of welfare in immigration detention. Paul Morrison, Immigrations Services Director said: “Dungavel is an IRC in South Lanarkshire where our Escorting Services already operate a vehicle base, and I am looking forward to integrating this with the management of the IRC. This, and our recent Derwentside IRC contract win undoubtedly represents an increased presence in the immigration market and the Home Office trust in our ability to deliver a high level of service whilst creating a safe and trusted environment.” Read the full article here > Read next Press Release 3 October 2022 Mitie hits all annual ESG targets putting it on track to meet 2025 goals 2022 ESG report released detailing how Mitie hit all 13 ESG targets for the year, putting Mitie on track to meet its overall 2025 ESG goals Environmental highlights include saving customers 375,000 tonnes of… Read More Press Release 27 September 2022 Broadcaster extends facilities management contract with Mitie The BBC has extended its facilities management contract with Mitie for a further two years 780 colleagues work on the contract, delivering a range of integrated FM services for the broadcaster’s sites including its… Read More Press Release 12 May 2022 Andy Burnham unveils Mitie’s new northern technology hub Mitie has unveiled its new Technical Services Operations Centre (TSOC) in Wythenshawe, Greater Manchester, showcasing its cutting-edge workplace technology Officially opened by Andy Burnham, Mayor of Greater Manchester, the TSOC is Mitie’s new Hub… Read More Press Release 28 April 2022 Mitie showcases latest innovation with the launch of its Cleaning and Hygiene Centre of Excellence • Mitie has launched its new Cleaning and Hygiene Centre of Excellence, to showcase the latest innovation in cleaning science and technology• Made up of six Zones, the new Centre in Birmingham demonstrates best… Read More See Resource Archive
