We have two specialist ten-bed inpatient units - one at Mount Edgcumbe Hospice in St Austell and one at St Julia's Hospice in Hayle - which enable us to provide the around-the-clock care that some patients require. We also provide community nursing services for those that are able and wish to remain in their own home. This is a genuine lifeline for the patients, as is the unlimited support our community nurses provide to the patients' loved ones at this difficult time. Furthermore, we have developed Neighbourhood Hub Support Clinics, Community Friendship Cafes, Wellbeing Workshops and Bereavement Friendship Support Groups, and we also provide lymphoedema clinics and a 24/7 Advice Line to address all those questions and concerns that patients and their families inevitably have about their condition and care. Finally, in addition to our clinical care services, we provide education programmes for healthcare workers and healthcare providers across Cornwall. The exceptional care we provide is free-of-charge for our patients, but it ultimately comes at a cost that we have to raise from the amazing Cornwall community via our income generation activities, with a small proportion coming from the NHS. Our charity plays an important part in our local community, rehoming and recycling many pre-loved items of furniture and clothing and places a high importance on identifying and implementing energy efficiency enhancements within both of our hospice buildings, where our central mission revolves around providing compassionate care for individuals in their end of life journey and out in our local community. To install a solar panel array on the roof of our two hospices along with a battery system to reduce our carbon footprint and significantly reduce our energy bills. The purchase of this system is part of a grant funded application process and therefore procurement will be subject to grant approval of the project. We will assess tenders received on a Most Economically Advantageous Tender. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/f72e77bf-2e06-46a3-b68d-6b832a5e2900 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Works | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure (below threshold) | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 26 Jun 2024 | | Submission deadline | 8 Jul 2024 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 31 Jul 2024 - 31 Oct 2024 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £110,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | CORNWALL HOSPICE CARE LIMITED | | Locality | ST AUSTELL | | Post town | Plymouth | | Postcode | PL26 6AB | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLK South West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLK3 Cornwall and Isles of Scilly | | ITL 3 | TLK30 Cornwall and Isles of Scilly | | Local authority | Cornwall | | Electoral ward | St Mewan & Grampound | | Westminster constituency | St Austell and Newquay | | Delivery location | TLK South West (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 09 - Petroleum products, fuel, electricity and other sources of energy ### Codes - 09331000 - Solar panels - 09332000 - Solar installation ## Release History - 26 Jun 2024 at 15:51 - TenderAmendment - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/f72e77bf-2e06-46a3-b68d-6b832a5e2900 - 7 Jun 2024 at 19:19 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/f72e77bf-2e06-46a3-b68d-6b832a5e2900 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/f72e77bf-2e06-46a3-b68d-6b832a5e2900 26th June 2024 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/eb330d43-a0da-417e-8821-863e39d832db - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/76b1d08c-0b6a-42e4-929f-b0fcca6d40fe - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/b7b4cad4-02df-4c7e-9a73-541a9946a58f - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/20d52f22-a717-4eff-ad15-3d0640b3a0a9 ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
