The Council is seeking to appoint a suitably qualified and experienced organisation to a Framework to undertake topographical surveys across the borough of Sefton for a period of approximately 3 years from 1st November 2021. The survey information will be used to help inform the design of a number of mainly transport related schemes in different locations across the Borough. This will support a significant programme of schemes and further potential schemes within the Council's Transport Capital programme. Many of the surveys will be undertaken on the highway. There is no defined quantity for the number of surveys required although, as a broad indication it is estimated that approximately 20 surveys will need completing over any 12 month period. Works are currently progressing on the development of two major business cases, which focus on modifications to a number of junctions in both the north and south of the borough. This is expected to be a significant commission and will be undertaken at the start of the contract. Participation in this quotation process which seeks to result in securing a single provider to undertake Topographical Surveys, in no way guarantees any successful bidder any given volume of work over the duration of the framework contract period

This Request for Quotation is for the package of landscaping works as part of the Bootle Canalside project. The Council has purchased 1.8 acres of land to the south of the Bootle Strand Shopping Centre and to the North of the Leeds Liverpool Canal to deliver a project which will assist in the regeneration of both the Strand and the wider Bootle area. A key element of the project is to deliver a Waterside Urban Garden on the site. A temporary landscaping strategy utilising planters and seating of different size will be used to define the zones and spaces within the site, create points of interest and meeting places, as well as opportunities for socialising and community events.

This will be most evident with the waterside garden area, where the number of planters and variety of planting will create the impression of a leafy and green public urban garden on the banks of the canal. The proposed materials for the planters will be attractive yet robust, safe and secure, with the temporary aesthetic described previously yet still suitable for a public environment.

The Healthy Child Programme (HCP) is the early intervention and prevention public health programme that lies at the heart of universal services for children, young people, and families at a crucial stage of life. Its universal reach provides an invaluable opportunity to identify families that are in need of additional support and children who are at risk of poor outcomes. Sefton has an age 0-19 population of 59,700; and of those 14,500 are under the age of 5 years. Public Health HCP is currently provided to the 0-19 (up to 25 with SEND) age group through an integrated contract, which includes Health Visiting, School Nursing and an Enhanced Pathway for vulnerable families. The service is fully aligned to NHSEI commissioned Immunisations and Vaccination Programme, and ICB Commissioned Specialist Nursing for Children in Care (CiC), Youth Justice Service and Specialist Safeguarding. Under the terms of the Health and Social Care Act 2012, local authorities are responsible for improving the health of their local population and the commissioning of public health services for children and young people 0 to 19 years (up to 25 with SEND). Ensuring every child has the best start in life is one of OHID's (formerly PHE) key priorities. Best Start in Life has been identified as a priority within the national 5-year strategy, which runs from 2020 to 2025. A major contribution to achieving these ambitions and strategies is the modernisation of the Healthy Child Programme, which is based on 4 levels of service - community, universal, targeted and specialist, depending on individual and family need. The Service will have a significant role in Sefton and be a lead partner in the Integrated Care System and locality based multi-agency working arrangements. The HCP will be structured in line with the wider Sefton's Children and Young People (C&YP) offer, 'Start Well', which is currently in transformation. It will also align with the development of Family Wellbeing Hubs and the updated Social Care model and will work together to deliver an integrated service for children and young people. The aim is to reduce duplication across the workforce and improve efficiency and the experience of the children, young people, and families that the Service is working with. The Service will work positively with the Council and its partners to transform and improve services and outcomes for children and young people. This may result in additional services being added and changes to the service specification, in accordance with the contract variation provision, during the term of the contract. There will also be an expectation for service provision to flex, responding to changes to national guidance (such as further guidance around the Modernised Healthy Child Programme), or as a result of local transformation. We are conducting an Open Procedure tender exercise to put the contract in place to run for a period of 5 years with 2 x 12 month options.
