Notice Title

Contractor for Redruth Former Library

Notice Description

The Former Redruth Library at 2-4 Clinton Road, Redruth TR15 2QE was acquired by us, a local arts organisation, this year from Cornwall Council. Our organisation 'Redruth Former Library CIC' (Client) was formed in 2021 to purchase and transform the neglected Grade II listed Passmore Edwards Library and College buildings into a hub for community, education and culture called: "The Ladder". Opened in 1895, the building has always represented Passmore Edwards' commitment to creating spaces for social mobility; and we take its name from a quote from Edwards: "If I can fund the Ladder; the people will climb". We carry that mission forward into the 21st Century. In the year of the 200th anniversary of Passmore's birth, we want to build on his legacy to provide spaces which allow development and growth for the people of Redruth. The Buildings The former library is located at the end of Clinton Road, Redruth and forms a corner with Treruffe Hill. It comprises two listed buildings, the Library with the striking corner tower and the College. In between these two historic buildings is a modern link. The site was used up until March 2020 whereupon the Library relocated. Overall the two main buildings are sound but in need of internal and external refurbishment. There followed during 2020 the preparation of a Condition Report which described the failing fabric and finishes. Following a period with no occupancy we took on the building in 2021 with the aim of phased regeneration as the availability of funding permitted. THE LADDER - FORMER REDRUTH LIBRARY TENDER BRIEF FOR A CONTRACTOR Through consultation with the community we have started to build a community of arts, education and community organisations at The Ladder and have created a courtyard garden, cafe, rehearsal and performance spaces for the use and enjoyment of all. We now look forward to further refurbishment as follows:- Project Description: Type: Roof repair works, spot items and re-roofing of Reading Room. Project involves the following: 1. Replacement of slate roof finish to the Reading Room, and WC as shown on accompanying drawings 2. Repairs and replacement of gutters and downpipes. 3. Localised spot roofing slate repairs and flashing repairs as shown on drawing. THIS TENDER OPPORTUNITY: Funding is now in hand through the Shared Prosperity to undertake these works, primarily focused on spot repairs and medium term solutions to a leaking roof as we seek additional funding to eventually replace entire roof. Additional funding is currently being sought through the COF and NLHF to undertake complete re-roofing. Additional information: Contractors that are interested in tendering for this work must request a tender pack from either: Claire Newman Architect: claire@clairenewmanarchitect.com A full tender pack will be supplied by return email.
