Description

Services Required
We are looking to appoint a contractor that will have the skills and abilities to create a design and construct a garden that fulfils our objectives. The contractor we are looking to appoint must be able to demonstrate.

• References from customers where they have completed similar works.
• Details of relevant insurance cover for this type of project.
• Health and Safety documentation that include sample risk and method statements.

The attached images and dimensions supplied within this ITQ are for reference only. It is essential that contractors visit site and be responsible for their measurements of the area before submitting a quote. The Hospice will invite all interested parties to the site on the morning of Wednesday 28 April 2023. No alternate site visits are planned or allowed within this procurement exercise.

The key objectives of this project are.

• The view to the gardens from the patient rooms should be stimulating in both colour of planting and floral aroma that is viable within each season.
• Features added to the garden that encourage wildlife and insects.
• Create a peaceful environment.
• Create spaces that allow the patients (in wheelchairs or beds) to use external spaces with their families and friends for quiet enjoyment giving consideration to privacy from neighbouring rooms.
• Create a collective area centrally to the garden that can be accessed from each room.
• Provide viable protection from the sun or rain through fixed or furniture provision.
• Provide lighting features to subtly illuminate the garden during the hours of darkness.

It is essential that the following services and provisions are maintained and adhered to.

• The existing walkway to the perimeter of the building must be maintained within your design.
• Maintaining level access from each bedroom through the existing patio windows.
• The existing central housing for the air conditioning equipment that is shielded by wooden fencing must be maintained (and enhanced where applicable).
• Proposed paths and walkways must be suitable to allow hospital beds to be pushed and manoeuvred within existing risk assessment requirements (attached).
• Join seamlessly with the adjacent garden area to the rear of the Hospice grounds
