In addition, it also manages 73 leasehold properties for older people and has a sheltered housing scheme in Hereford. Of the 1,693 homes under RHA's stewardship, more than 1600 require grounds maintenance. This comprises communal grounds, some individual front gardens and in a few cases, even the rear gardens of individual homes. Due to the geographically dispersed nature of RHA's homes, the significant volume of grounds that require maintaining and RHA's commitment to make all opportunities accessible to SME's, the decision has been taken to split this contract into multiple lots. Respondents are welcome to submit proposals for any combination of lots and there is no limit on the number of lots that any single Respondent can win. The current grounds maintenance contract will expire naturally at the end of June 2024, having run its full term, plus the maximum number of permitted extensions.
