Award of contract for refurbishment of Contact Centre at Orchard House Children's Home
Orchard House children’s home in Cuckfield is part of the County Council’s Residential Service. The buildings at the site provide a range of services including court-ordered supervised contact between children and families.
The Cabinet Member for Children and Young People approved the allocation of funding for remodelling the wider Orchard House site and the launch of two separate procurement processes to undertake the works, with the refurbishment of the contact centre being one of these tender opportunities (decision CYP04(21/22) refers)
The Cabinet Member also delegated authority for the award of the contracts to carry out the works. Therefore, on completion of the procurement process the Director of Children, Young People and Learning will be requested to approve the award of a contract to carry out the refurbishment of the contact centre to the successful provider.
