Award outcome

Description

The service will include call handling requirements during opening hours, kennelling and the re-homing of stray dogs. \r It will be necessary for 7 kennels to be set aside permanently for use by Blackpool Council.

Extra kennels may be required at different times of the year, especially in July, August and around November and December. A guideline of 50 extra kennel spaces a year is given as an estimate but this number is subject to change and may increase or decrease accordingly. It is anticipated that the contract term will be from 18 December 2023 to 17 December 2028, with the option to extend incrementally for a period of 2 years on a 1 year + 1 year basis\r (subject to contract review and budget availability).
