One which continues to meet the needs of those already active and engaged but which also focuses on less active populations in support of wider health and social outcomes.\nThe procurement of a new leisure operating contract represents a key opportunity to align the role of the operator with the Council's strategic ambitions, ensuring that future service delivery actively contributes to more meaningful outcomes for residents.\nThe Sport, Leisure and Culture Consultancy (SLC) is supporting the Council with this market engagement exercise and throughout the subsequent procurement process. \nThe purpose of this exercise is to secure early engagement with the market and to test some of the Council's initial thinking on key elements of the new contract and procurement approach in order to inform the development of a clear Procurement Strategy.\nThe attached documents provide some high-level information on the facilities in scope; the potential development opportunities identified through the Active Wellbeing Investment Strategy and the proposed timescale for the procurement.\nThe Council are seeking confidential responses to a brief set of questions which explore potential partnership options.
