## About this tender

Fawley Parish Council (FPC) is seeking to upgrade some of its old playground equipment and provide some new equipment to improve disability access at three of their playgrounds;

â&#128;¢ The Warren, Holbury

â&#128;¢ QEII Recreation Ground, Thornbury Avenue, Blackfield

â&#128;¢ Tristan Close, Calshot

The Council is keen where possible to use recycled materials as per the FPC Strategic Plan 2016/19 Policy 7 'The Environment' which states "Working to support national and local policies for recycling, and in particular supporting a local recycling centre, combined with supporting local community compost and recycling schemes".

FPC is situated on the coast and therefore corrosion and durability is a key concern around its play equipment. We are keen to keep wooden equipment and component parts to a minimum. Any metal equipment should where possible be 'double dipped' galvanised frameworks with 100% recyclable component parts/panels.

We will be seeking a lengthy warranty on parts and labour and where possible a lifetime warranty, either as part of any warranty offered and/or available to be purchased as an extended warranty.

We are looking for a range of equipment that provides excellent access for interaction with children with a range of disabilities for ages 2 - 12 yrs (we have provided a rough range, but this is not prescriptive if the ranges are not exactly as required) to occupy the following areas;

â&#128;¢ The Warren, Holbury

o Unit 1 - Roundabout, 6m x 6m (2-6 yrs)

o Unit 2 - Climbing Frame, new install unrestricted area (2 - 6 yrs)

â&#128;¢ QEII Recreation Ground, Thornbury Avenue, Blackfield

o Unit 1 - Climbing frame with slide 9m x 5m (4 - 12 yrs)

o Unit 2 - Nest swing, 7m x 4m

o Unit 3 - See Saw, 5m x 5m (3 - 8 yrs)

â&#128;¢ Tristan Close, Calshot

o Unit 1 - Climbing Frame with Slide, 7m x 4m (2 - 6 yrs)

o Unit 2 - Roundabout, 6m radius (2 - 6 yrs)

Please note no celebrity pictures or cartoon characters should be used in any of the submissions. FPC may withdraw applications which include such graphics.
