Description

This project is concerned with the building of a new Community Centre within Elsenham on land that has been given to the Parish Council under a Section 106 agreement with a housing developer.
The project is to be funded by a combination of S106 contributions from a series of developments within the village, together with other grant funding and potential borrowing from the Debt Management Office (formerly the Public Works Loan Board).
The new Community Centre is intended to provide facilities for this fast-growing village and the surrounding area. It will be sited roughly in the centre of the village, and it is envisaged that it will become a true village centre and resource for the entire village.
The facilities should include:
A main hall capable of supporting events with 200 standing, or 120 seated at tables. The hall does not need to be of sufficient height to accommodate badminton. It should be possible to divide the hall into three meeting rooms through the use of folding partitions;
Parish Council office and meeting space, approximately 10.0 metres X 5.0 metres, with separate access;
Small room for use to provide internet access, 3.0 metres X 3.0 metres;
A community café with its own kitchen and seating area;
A community kitchen for users of the Centre;
changing facilities to Football Foundation standards incorporating direct access to the building and to the adjoining playing field;
Ample storage space, including provision for cleaning and maintenance;
Toilets with separate external access available.
Tender Submission
Tenders must be submitted strictly in accordance with the instructions.
A fee quotation should be submitted for the full design, project management and completion of this facility in accordance with the RIBA Stages of Work 2020. It should be presented in the following format:
1. Outline proposals for a potential scheme, including basic sketches of the vision for the development.

3. Fee proposals associated with the scheme, which should be broken into the following stages:
a) RIBA Stages 0 to 2.
b) RIBA Stages 3 & 4.
