Night Marshals Service

Tender description

The contract is to provide six marshals patrolling a designated area of Wakefield City Centre between the hours of 21.30 and 04.30 on Friday and Saturday nights, 52 weeks of the year. The contract has flexibility in the days of the week/time of operation to meet the needs of the service, for example to include Bank Holidays. The Council and the Police required the right to alter or amend the agreed working schedule as necessary and the contractor is obliged to meet these requirements. The purpose of this service is centred on conflict management and resolution but also includes protecting the vulnerable either through intoxication, age or vulnerability. A key element of the contract is the Street Angels who provide support and assistance to vulnerable patrons within the night time economy. The Council also requires the flexibility to extend the provision to other areas within the district should there be a requirement. Keywords: Security, Marshal
