## Summary

The Create (Cornwall) C.I.C. has issued an Invitation to Tender for the refurbishment of the Donald Thomas Centre, located in Camborne (TR14 8EF), aiming to transform it into the Camborne Contemporary Crafts Hub. The procurement is classified under the construction works category and employs an open procedure, with a tender period that concludes on 7 September 2022. The total value of the contract is £200,000, with a contract period scheduled to start on 3 October 2022 and run until 31 March 2023. This project is heavily reliant on grant funding from Cornwall Council's Community Led Local Development programme, with final grant approval expected by 14 September 2022.

This tender represents an excellent opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the construction sector, particularly those specialising in refurbishment works and cultural space development.

Engaging with a project that not only aims at renovation but also at fostering a creative community can further enhance a company's portfolio and reputation in the industry.
