Description

St Blaise is a small town situated in the valley of kilhallon, Cornwall a very attractive parish with a close community and with a lot of local history.

We are a group of dedicated councillors that are here to provide a service second to none to our community and tourists alike. We have ten Councillors providing a variation of services to the public.

St Blaise is the home of the Eden Project and St Blaise has been more recognized by tourists as a pleasant and ever more thriving community with a town as welcoming as they come.

St Blaise has a population of 6,873 according to the 2011 census which includes 1496 children under 16

The existing play area was installed as a playground for the millennium, this is an opportunity to redevelop the park so it can be more reflective of the needs of the local community. There is a new housing development next to the park that replaces approximately 100 one bedroomed properties with family homes.

We would like to enhance and develop the play area to include equipment for all ages and abilities with as a carbon neutral alternative and install an adult gym with the aim to foster a sense of belonging and ownership allowing people the chance to get to know neighbours they may have never talked to before.

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.
