## About this tender

The Wells-next-the-Sea children's playground is on Beach Road beside the Quay.

It has been a playground for at least 65 years and has established equipment added to over the years. This has been well maintained and is not going to be replaced.

The Council now has £80,000 to add to the facility. Our focus is provision for under 5s and inclusivity.

We have run a survey with our schools and their wish list is

- Swing Set - two inclusive swings seats and one parent and toddler swing seat
- An inclusive trampoline
- An inclusive roundabout
- A toddler activity house
- A toddler music activity

We also need to include a suitable pathway to the new equipment for buggies and wheelchairs and the correct surfaces under the equipment.

Consideration of the fact that this playground is next to the sea needs to influence the choice of materials used to make the equipment.

We are looking for a contractor who would supply and install the equipment, make ready and make good the surfaces and pathways, and remove any unwanted materials resulting from necessary groundworks associated with the project.

We are hoping to start the project at the beginning of September 2026, with ground broken by the 30th.

We would be happy to show any prospective contactor around the site.

We are hoping to follow this with a phase 2 playground development in 2028.
