History
The business was launched as The Medical Property Investment Fund in 2003 and became listed on the London Stock Exchange in that year. The name was changed to Assura Group in 2006. In 2008 the company bought new premises for expansion in Halton.[2] Assura sold its Assura Medical division to Virgin Group in 2010, which rebranded it as Virgin Care.[3]
It acquired AH Medical, another primary healthcare business, in 2011.[4] It named Graham Roberts, a former finance director of British Land Company, as Chief Executive in March 2012.[5] In June 2012 it decided to convert to Real Estate Investment Trust ('REIT') status.[6]
