## Notice

Beccles Fenland Charity Trust (of which Beccles Town Council are the sole trustee) are seeking quotes for improving the Fen Lane Play area. (Please see attached images). The two larger pieces of equipment (images 01 & 02) have deteriorated and the Trust would like to replace them with new, contemporary & accessible pieces that still target the same age demographic (namely KS2/Ages 7-12). The horse & cart (image 03) also needs replacing with a new role-play area. Furthermore, The Trust would like to replace the junior swing set (image 04) and also add a "Team Swing" & inclusive roundabout to the play area. The play area is based at our town Quay. This area is a gateway to the Broads and a key destination for residents & visitors alike. Any theming of the equipment should reflect these wider surroundings. The Trust are seeking quotes from companies with an upper budget of PS80,000. All quotes should include delivery & installation, any flooring requirements and details of warranty periods.
