Summary of the contracting process

Hannington Parish Council’s Play Project covers the design and installation of playground equipment, together with associated works. It is a combined equipment and construction requirement for a parish play facility, rather than a purchase of equipment alone. The buying organisation is Hannington Parish Council, and the work is for Hannington, Wiltshire. The published scope does not describe particular equipment, site works or intended users in further detail. The contract was awarded to Wicksteed Leisure Limited, indicating that the requirement included both designing the play provision and carrying out its installation and related works.

The procurement is complete and a supplier has been selected. Wicksteed Leisure Limited was awarded the single lot on 8 July 2026. The awarded value is £61,120 excluding VAT (£73,344 including VAT). The contract period runs from 1 January 2027 to 1 January 2028. The process was described as below threshold, with the specific procedure recorded as unknown. The published information does not set out an evaluation method or eligibility requirements, so the basis on which bids were compared cannot be described. No other supplier or separate lot award is reported.

For a future requirement of this kind from Hannington Parish Council, a credible supplier would need to combine playground design with the ability to supply and install play equipment and complete associated works. The award demonstrates that the council bought this as an integrated play project, rather than equipment supply in isolation. Wicksteed Leisure Limited, identified as an SME, secured the work, showing that a supplier of that scale can deliver the requirement. Relevant experience would therefore include delivering comparable playground projects that bring design, equipment and installation together. The published scope gives no particular equipment specification or required accreditation, so it does not establish a more specific technical or qualification profile.
