Tender description

The Outdoor Pursuits Service operates at Sneyd Watersports Centre at the former Sneyd High School and the Aldridge Airport Outdoor and Environmental Education Centre.

Walsall Council are looking for a provider to operate and maintain the service at no cost to the council. The Council would want existing provision to be continued, but the provider will have scope to expand and develop delivery beyond this. This process is asking for information which is needed by the Council in order to develop the final scope and specification for the service.
