Tender Description

The parish of Mawgan-in-Meneage is a largely rural area situated to the south of Helston in the Meneage area of the Lizard Peninsula. Mawgan village and the hamlet of Garras are the principal areas of habitation.
The parish lies within the Cornwall Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and the intertidal SSSI touches the parish at Trelowarren Mill.
Mawgan-in-Meneage Recreation Hall has been serving Mawgan and its surrounding communities on the Lizard peninsula since 1983 with continuous involvement from the local community and volunteers. The Trustees of the Hall, in collaboration with the Parish Council and with input from the wider community have identified that it requires expansion and modernisation to: i) meet current community user needs; ii) evolve (and future-proof) in line with the needs of a diverse range of community members across generational groups; iii) bring new users into the community to boost local pride and the local economy.
The Hall has not been renovated for forty years and has recently suffered damage to its floors and ceilings due to a water tank leak in the roof space. The period when the Hall was out-of-action really highlighted community reliance on the hall as a space to gather, collaborate, share, and celebrate. Without investment in this vital piece of community infrastructure, the hall will continue to deteriorate, and along with it a central community space. This was highlighted as there has been a fall in hall bookings. There is a need to act now to undertake much needed improvements to the community hall infrastructure, this funding will allow current community members' needs to be met and avoid any further deterioration of the building.
Physical renovation of the Village Hall will include extending the space by building an extension; enabling disabled access and use; fitting sustainable heating systems; bringing the Hall up to modern technology specifications (e.g. projector system and Wifi); resurfacing the carpark and refitting the kitchen. There will also be some demolition of internal walls, new openings formed within the original structure and reconfiguration and new installation of the toilet facilities to include multi user facilities.
The project will consist of the works to renovate the community hall to a good standard including extending the current space, enabling disabled access and use, fitting a sustainable heating system, updating technology to modern specifications, to include a projector system and WIFI, resurfacing the carpark and refitting the kitchen. The project also includes the purchase of items needed within the hall to ensure it has all facilities in place to allow for prolonged community use.
The purchase of this system is part of a grant funded application process and therefore procurement will be subject to grant approval of the project. We will assess tenders received on a Most Economically Advantageous Tender.
