It is essential that contractors visit site and be responsible for measuring the area before submitting a quote. Interested parties are invited to site on Wednesday 17 July 2024. The key objectives of this project are. • View to the gardens from the patient rooms and the wellbeing Haven to be stimulating in both colour of planting and floral aroma that is visable within each season. • Features added to the garden that encourage wildlife and insects. • Create peaceful environment that allow the patients (in wheelchairs or beds) to use external spaces with their families and friends for quiet enjoyment giving consideration to providing adequate privacy from neighbouring rooms and the outpatient facility. • Create an undercover collective area for outside activities for outpatients along with an area which could accommodate an outside summerhouse at a later date. • Provide viable protection from the sun or rain through fixed or furniture provision. • Provide lighting features to subtly illuminate the garden during the hours of darkness. • Currently approximately 55% of the site is unusable due to levels - in order to make the best use of the entire site it is anticipated that this will need to be reduced down to the existing walkway height to have a level site (removal of an estimated 400 tonne will be required. It is essential that the following services and provisions are maintained and adhered to:. • Joins seamlessly with the adjacent garden area (outside bedrooms 5-12) • Maintaining level access from each bedroom through the existing patio windows • Proposed paths and walkways must be suitable to allow hospital beds to be pushed and manoeuvred. • Existing central housing for the air conditioning equipment that is shielded by wooden fencing currently impedes on the available outside patio space of 2 patient bedrooms and therefore some minor relocation (or stacking) in conjunction with the use of some form of acoustic fencing ([noistop.rockwool.com](https://noistop.rockwool.com/)) is likely to be required - the cost of this needs to be factored in. As a charity we are supported by Construction industry Relief, Assistance and Support for the Homeless and Hospices' (CRASH). CRASH may sponsor and or provide materials at substantially discounted costs to charity funded projects. In your submission we ask that you provide a schedule of materials, quantities required and cost of each item.
