BTG Eddisons boosts healthcare sector expertise with senior South Coast hire
Property consultancy BTG Eddisons has strengthened its healthcare advisory capability with the appointment of Peter Deehan as director across the firm’s South Coast offices in Fareham, Bournemouth and the Isle of Wight.

Peter Deehan said: “Joining BTG Eddisons at such a pivotal point in the firm’s growth is an exciting step and I’m looking forward to helping clients deliver high-quality, future-proofed facilities that support changing clinical and community needs.”
Ian Harrington, who heads BTG Eddisons’ national building and project consultancy team, added: “Peter’s experience in the healthcare built environment is a significant boost to our capability. His knowledge of the sector, combined with his commercial and technical expertise, will help us support clients as the demand for modern, compliant and sustainable healthcare accommodation grows.”
