## Notice

A strong, sustainable Cultural Events Programme will address cultural deprivation and bring enhanced economic activity and jobs to Boscombe, supporting the local retail and hospitality sectors, driving, for example, a more developed night-time economy. The Events project will help deliver some of the objectives of the Towns Fund. One objective of the Towns Fund included in Paragraph 1.23 of the Towns Fund Prospectus (2019) states: 'Perception of place is an important 'pull' factor in business location decisions and can affect a place's capacity to attract and retain workers. Many towns already have a strong heritage and sense of place, and benefit from their cultural and civic assets'. The contractor(s) will be required to work with at least 10 local artists to either deliver or advise on the programme and this is to be captured under the output 'Number of local artists engaged in Cultural Events Programme activities each year'. Additional information: Suppliers interested in this opportunity can access the full procurement documentation by visiting BCP Council's Tendering system www.supplyingthesouthwest.org.uk Suppliers should search for the opportunity through Supplying the South West. There are further details of the opportunity on the advert published on www.supplyingthesouthwest.org.uk and instructions on how suppliers can access the procurement documentation for completion. Responses to the opportunity must be submitted electronically through www.supplyingthesouthwest.org.uk before the deadline shown on the system.
