Notice Description

Southend-on-Sea Borough Council is seeking to award a contract for the provision of a Community Builder Service in Southend-on-Sea.

The Southend 2050 Ambition has been co-created with residents, local groups, partners and businesses. The outcomes cannot be effectively delivered only by The Council. As the process moves to co-designing proposals, co- production and delivery engaged and empowered citizens and partners are required to make the outcomes a reality. The Community Builders service is key to delivering the Southend 2050 outcomes and the Community Builders will rebuild residents and communities trust in their own strengths and assets and for connections to be made between residents.
