Summary of the contracting process

The Council of the Isles of Scilly has initiated a public procurement process for the construction of the Carn Gwaval Family Belonging and Inclusion Hub. This project focuses on creating a community-based resource for children and young people, emphasising wellbeing, enrichment, and inclusion. The procurement stage is currently in planning, with a tender submission deadline set for 3rd April 2026, and aimed at building a 120m² annex to the existing Carn Gwaval Well-being centre. The project is categorised under building construction work, within the works industry category. The contract, which holds a gross value of £1.32 million, is located in the South West region (UKK30), United Kingdom.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses involved in building construction, particularly those focusing on community and educational projects. Firms that specialise in creating inclusive and accessible spaces for children and young people, including those with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND), may find this project aligns with their expertise. Given the reserved participation for SMEs and VCSEs, smaller businesses can also compete effectively in this open procurement competition. Interested parties should prepare to ensure project mobilisation and completion by the planned end date of 8th September 2026.
