BT157 - Ernest Harriss Community Hub

Description

Ernest Harriss House will be the council’s first full Community Hub in Westminster and we are looking for a supplier who will work with the Council and the community to co-create, finish and complete the fit-out. Our ambition is that this creates a welcoming, inclusive and creative space, encouraging participation, providing support and empowering communities with knowledge and skills. We are appointing a supplier to work in a coordinated way with the Council’s existing contractors, to work with residents to co-create the Ernest Harriss House Community Hub spaces to be handed over to an operator. This should include: • A Community Hub set of spaces co-created with residents for the local community. • A creative, inclusive and welcoming style, decoration and finishes throughout the building. • Proposed furniture, fittings and storage solutions which support the planned uses and programming of the space. • Proposed day to day layout plans for the operator. • Support and advice for the incoming operator. • Strengthened community ownership and ongoing involvement in the space.
