Description

Market House, located in the centre of Thame, Oxfordshire, is a grade II listed building owned by South Oxfordshire District Council. The building houses public conveniences and the Thame branch of the Citizens Advice Bureau (CAB). The CAB (the tenants) will re-locate to temporary offices for the duration of the works.

The current toilet facilities located at Market House are coming to the end of their lifespan. The council wishes to modify the existing toilet provision and re-model the internal layout to include the addition of a Changing Places facility.

The amenities at Market House will comprise of:

• 1 Changing Places toilet facility
• 2 unisex toilet cubicles
• 1 Ambulant disabled toilet with baby changing facility
• Service areas to replenish stock and to store relevant equipment

The council has already gained planning permission for these works; therefore, the conditions of this planning consent must be met. The application number is P24/S0622/FUL. The conditions of the planning consent can be viewed within the tender supporting documents pack (ref: Decision Notice).

Objectives

To complete the refurbishment, including the installation of the Changing Places facility, ready for public use no later than 30th June 2025. This is to allow requisite time for separate works that are scheduled to the exterior of the building to take place before the Citizens Advice Bureau move back into the building at the start of August 2025.

To achieve full registration status of the Changing Places facility from Changing Places UK and to have the facility publicized on their website.

To achieve all the works in the timeframe as set out within this invitation to tender.
