Leisure Services Management Contract

Tender description

The London Borough of Newham is inviting tenders for their Leisure Services Management Contract services. The contract is for 10 years with optional extension of 5 years. This is an invitation to tender. Any interested organisation/consortium with relevant experience may submit a Bid in response to this contract notice. Leisure services offer a huge opportunity to improve the health and wellbeing of our residents. The Council's Health and Wellbeing Strategy, 50 Steps to a Healthier Borough, outlines the ambitions of the Council and its partners to improve the health of residents. This includes the recognition of the importance that physical activity has in supporting an individual's overall health and mental wellbeing, as well as the positive impact on supporting wider health inequalities. The delivery and management of leisure services has been redesigned to reflect the current landscape in the borough, including the impact that Covid-19 has had on residents' health and wellbeing. The redesigned provision reflects a borough which supports and nurtures our young people and families and a service that will be required to work with a range of partners to provide an offer that supports the needs of all residents. To achieve this, a renewed focus and approach to the delivery and management of leisure services is required. This approach alongside the Councils strategic approach through 50 Steps to a Healthier Newham, Community Wealth Building, Towards a Better Newham, Bright Futures, Climate Now and Tackling Racism, Inequality and Disproportionality supports broader outcomes for Newham residents including: • Fewer inactive people • Better physical and mental health • Inclusive and suitable opportunities for all • Social connectedness • Apprenticeships and local employment The Council's vision, aspirations and ambitions will play a leading role throughout the proposed procurement process to identify a leisure partner whose capabilities, track record and goals match our own.
