In delivering the service the City Centre Wardens will work collaboratively with partners to identify and diffuse anti-social behaviour (ASB).

Lot Information
Lot 1
Options: Throughout the Contract Term it may be necessary for WCBC to increase the weekly hours beyond the specified 80 hours (40 hours per warden). This may happen when events are held within the City Centre or if additional support is required by WCBC to support potential security threats, anti-social behaviour or if the PSPO boundary expands. For example, this may include sports events, music events, markets, festivals, or threatening behaviour from members of the public. Please note that the above is not an exhaustive list. At the time of tender Wrexham County Borough Council (WCBC) intends to purchase the service detailed within this tender and its attachments, however, it may be possible that throughout the term of the Contract WCBC receives additional funding that will allow for an increase in service provision / units / or equivalent supplied through this Contract. Where additional funding becomes available, regardless of its source, WCBC may request the successful Tenderer to increase the number of hours and / or personnel supplied through this Contract. Please note that WCBC cannot guarantee that there will be any sort of increase in service provision during the Contract term. At the time of tender all tenderers should submit their offering and pricing structure based off the published documents, not the possibility of additional hours/services being made available. The detail within this section has been included for information purposes only to make tenderers aware of future possibilities.
