## About this tender

Swansea Council’s Special Events Team delivers large‑scale events across a range of venues, including outdoor parks and public spaces throughout the city. Attendance varies significantly, from around 200 people to as many as 250,000. To support these events, we require Medical First Aid Cover provided by a single, reliable supplier. We are seeking a company or organisation with strong customer service, high‑quality provision, excellent training standards, a good range of equipment, and a proven commitment to health and safety. The contract for First Aid Cover will cover a 3-year period of events from 1st May 2026 – 30th April 2029 - With the option to extend for up to a further 24 months The requirements will change each year. At present we are still in the planning stage for future events and as such some exact events and timings are yet to be confirmed. All events are subject to date changes; specification changes and are subject to the event going ahead. Confirmation of the booking is only on receipt of an official order, which will be send by the appropriate Event Project Officer.

The following are examples of the type and scale of events the Events Team have hosted and organised where First Aid Cover is required:-

### Wales Airshow

### Swansea Bay 10k

### Singleton Park Concerts

Croeso Food and Drink Festival

Outdoor Theatre

### Fireworks

Christmas Parade

### Halloween

Swansea International Jazz Festival

### Amplitude

The price must include the cost for the provision of First Aid Personnel, necessary equipment, plus first aid vehicles or units when deemed necessary. Where larger scale events require specific infrastructure i.e. mobile field hospital, the Special Events Team will provide a suitable marquee/office unit. Medical Event Plans must be provided when requested by the Special Events Team to complete the Event Management Plan. Attendance at SAGs (online) may be required as defined by the event and SAG. All staff should be fully and appropriately trained. Provide an overview of the training your staff will have received. Contractors must comply with all established safe codes of practice in the workplace and comply at all times with the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974.
