Notice Title

Rosliston Forestry Centre Play Feature SDDC/RFC001

Notice Description

Rosliston Forestry Centre is managed by South Derbyshire District Council and attracts over 200,000 visitors a year. The current "sparrow hawk" bespoke play equipment is old and is not of the quality or value that the residents of South Derbyshire expect from such a location. Therefore the Council intend to replace this item with a more modern iconic piece of play equipment and welcome designs from suitably competent companies to make a statement piece for the forestry centre.
