LONDON, July 15, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Spire Healthcare today announces a new strategic partnership with Team GB, becoming the team’s exclusive Official Healthcare Services Partner through to the end of 2028, including the Los Angeles 2028 Olympic Games.

The partnership brings together two purpose-led organisations with a shared ambition to “make a healthier, more productive nation”, combining elite sport and leading healthcare expertise to inspire healthier lifestyles across the UK.

The collaboration will leverage Spire’s extensive UK footprint of 38 hospitals and more than 60 clinics, alongside its network of expert consultants, to promote the health benefits of physical activity and high-quality care.

The partnership will also see Spire Healthcare team up with Team GB athletes on campaigns and storytelling, championing the role of sport in helping us live heathier, happier lives, through extraordinary patient journeys and recovery stories.

In addition, the collaboration will create unique opportunities for Spire’s colleagues and clinical partners to participate in exclusive events with Team GB athletes, fostering pride and inspiration across its workforce.

Peter Corfield, Chief Commercial Officer, Spire Healthcare, said:

“We are incredibly proud to partner with Team GB, an organisation that embodies excellence, resilience and pride. Our shared agenda is clear - to play our part in making a healthier, more productive nation. 

“We look forward to teaming up with Team GB athletes to support and inspire people to be active for healthier lives and faster recovery.”

Tim Ellerton, Chief Commercial Officer, Team GB, said:

“Spire Healthcare is a natural partner for Team GB, with a shared commitment to inspiring people to live healthier, happier lives.

“Ahead of what promises to be a landmark Olympic Games in Los Angeles, our ambition is that this partnership will not only support our athletes on the road to the Games, but also help inspire people across the UK to prioritise their own health and wellbeing.”

A shared vision for a healthier nation

Spire Healthcare cares for more than 1.3 million patients each year and is one of the UK’s leading independent healthcare providers, with expertise across orthopaedics, physiotherapy, mental health and diagnostics — areas critical to both elite sport and daily life.

Full-scale national activation

Spire will activate the partnership through a multi-channel marketing programme across TV, digital, social media, and events.

The partnership forms part of the company’s long-term strategy to enhance brand awareness, expand community impact, and support the nation’s health through accessible, outstanding personalised care.
