## Summary

Cirencester Town Council has issued a public procurement opportunity for the design and construction of a new playground at Kingshill, Cirencester. This tender is part of the council's broader strategy to develop local amenity and play spaces, aiming to foster community well-being. The project has an allocated budget of £48,000 (excluding VAT) and focuses on inclusivity, accessibility, and sustainability to encourage physical activity and social interaction among children under seven. Located in Cirencester, Gloucestershire, the procurement process is in the tender stage, with submissions due by 1st October 2025. Interested parties must submit proposals digitally in PDF format, with hard copies welcome, to landandproperty@cirencester.gov.uk or mailed to Bingham House, 1 Dyer Street, Cirencester, GL7 2PP.

This tender provides substantial growth potential for businesses specialising in construction and playground equipment, particularly those capable of delivering environmentally sustainable solutions. SMEs with expertise in designing fairground amusements or construction works are well-suited to compete, offering innovative designs that meet the council's weighted scoring criteria, which emphasise project design and environmental considerations. As the top three submissions will be evaluated by Cirencester Town Council's Land and Property Committee, this is an excellent opportunity for businesses to establish their credibility and showcase their skills in a public sector setting. With potential expansions planned for local community facilities, businesses can position themselves as key stakeholders in ongoing development projects in the region.
