The engagement period for interested parties will close on 4th October 2021. This contract is aimed at organisations interested in negotiating a community lease for the arena and is based in Catford, England, with a postal code of SE6 4RU. This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses focused on community sports, events, and facility management. Companies that possess experience in sports services, community engagement, partnerships, and innovation in programme delivery will be particularly well-suited to compete. With the expectation of generating inward investment and extending the use of the arena to new audiences, this procurement could foster collaboration among local groups while promoting community development. ## Notice Lewisham Council is reaching out to the community in order to see if there is an appetite to commence negotiations with the Council around entering into a lease arrangement for the continued provision of sporting and other community use at Ladywell Arena. We would also hope that the successful organisation invested their time and energy in developing ideas about diversifying and extending the use of Ladywell Arena to new audiences through creative solutions and establishing new partnerships. The Council has an expectation that an organisation will generate inward investment during the term of the lease and we fully anticipate that existing groups may come together and work in partnership. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/5e5ec900-a5ac-41e4-8349-009f622d58d7 | | Notice type | Market Engagement Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Not specified | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Planning | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 27 Aug 2021 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 4 Oct 2021 | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Planning | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | LONDON BOROUGH OF LEWISHAM | | Locality | CATFORD | | Post town | South East London | | Postcode | SE6 4RU | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI4 Inner London - East | | ITL 3 | TLI44 Lewisham and Southwark | | Local authority | Lewisham | | Electoral ward | Rushey Green | | Westminster constituency | Lewisham East | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 37 - Musical instruments, sport goods, games, toys, handicraft, art materials and accessories - 92 - Recreational, cultural and sporting services ### Codes - 37400000 - Sports goods and equipment - 92600000 - Sporting services ## Release History - 27 Aug 2021 at 14:21 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/5e5ec900-a5ac-41e4-8349-009f622d58d7 - 26 Aug 2021 at 08:18 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/123cdfd9-a860-4536-92ab-5e9ff15d3cad - 26 Aug 2021 at 08:16 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/8b7d7d52-54fd-4f70-89fd-e8d2ccdf8a6f ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/5e5ec900-a5ac-41e4-8349-009f622d58d7 27th August 2021 - Early engagement notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/123cdfd9-a860-4536-92ab-5e9ff15d3cad 26th August 2021 - Early engagement notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/8b7d7d52-54fd-4f70-89fd-e8d2ccdf8a6f 26th August 2021 - Early engagement notice on Contracts Finder - https://procontract.due-north.com/Advert?advertId=9d6ca3f0-4406-ec11-810d-005056b64545 Advert ## Notice URLs - http://www.lewisham.gov.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
