The presentation is an opportunity for the Council to clarify the Tender responses; it is not an opportunity for Suppliers to offer a new proposal or new responses.

Scope

Description

The new play area at Mount Wise Gardens will provide a vital new facility for children residing in the Centre of Newquay. The play park is aimed at primary and junior school age children with some toddler provision. The park should be a welcoming and colourful space where everyone feels safe. It will enable children to play in different ways and allow them to stretch and challenge

themselves.

Key objectives of the Tender are:

To provide a vibrant, colourful play space with a wide range of equipment for the local residents in the area. Designs should be innovative and consider how equipment/play structures for different ages can be zoned to allow play equipment for toddlers as well as equipment aimed at primary and junior school age.

Designs should be fun, creative and imaginative with equipment that promotes healthy activity, incorporates risk and challenge and promotes inclusiveness.

Designs should make the best use of the space available with adequate space for Minimum Use Zones and allow sufficient space outside the fenced play area for seating/picnic tables. Seating provision will need to also be considered as part of the scope of this contract.

The Council's aspiration is for project completion, snagging and handover to be undertaken no later than before the end of Spring 2026.
