Goring-on-Thames Parish Council Bourdillon playground design and refurbishment

Published

Value

160,000 GBP

Description

Goring-on-Thames Parish Council invites proposals from suitably qualified companies to design and re-develop the play facilities on the Bourdillon Field recreation ground behind Goring Primary School (RG8 0BG). The existing playground consists of a fenced-in area and a grass mound in the middle. In addition, there is also an unfenced area adjacent to the playground with a combined basketball net and football goal. It is intended to extend and refurbish/redesign both areas. Requirements: The design of the playground should take into consideration the surroundings and should appeal to a wide age group - from toddler to year 6 primary (2-12 years). The open sports area should be suitable for an older age group. Suppliers should use their expert knowledge to recommend specific equipment, surfacing and a design to optimise use of the area available, including Accessible and SEN friendly elements. The playground should be themed with a large structure to denote the theme and to be the centrepiece. The proposals should include, to the extent possible given the physical layout, play-frames, slides, multiple swing sets, a multipurpose roundabout/turntable specifically accessible for wheelchair access, tactile/sensory play activities, log weavers / balance beams and challenging 'risky' play equipment, zip wire. The existing mound area should be utilised or enhanced as an integral part of the design. If suitable within the design and if there is space available, suppliers should include risky play: climbing frames, walk-ways, climbing walls, net/rope climbing frames, pyramid rope climbing frame, tactile/ sensory play: e.g. ball runs, glockenspiel/musical play and other items to stand up at and interact with and tunnels. Existing fencing should be retained if cost effective and extended and re-finished. Existing play equipment, benches etc should be refurbished and/or re-used if suppliers can do so cost effectively within their design concepts. The basketball/goal open sports area will be retained but suppliers should include the cost of replacing it with better and more modern equipment. The existing floor area will be enlarged and resurfaced. Suppliers should include proposals for suitable access paths to the playground gates. How to apply: Submissions should be made by 3pm on Friday 7th February 2025 to: The Clerk, Goring-on-Thames Parish Council, The Old School, Station Rd, Reading, RG8 9HB. All tenders must be signed by a named company director, dated and returned in a sealed envelope marked 'Private and Confidential - Goring on Thames Playgrounds' to the above address by post, courier or hand delivered.
