Abingdon-on-Thames Town Council wishes to engage a contractor to undertake refurbishment of Abbey Hall, which includes the separation of the existing building into two independently functioning buildings: Abbey Hall and Guildhall.
The project requires the disconnection, alteration, and installation of M&E services necessary to enable the operational separation of the two buildings, ensuring that each has independent building services while maintaining the integrity and functionality of the retained systems.
The project comprises the modification and reconfiguration of the existing mechanical and electrical services within the Guildhall to facilitate the operational separation of the two buildings. The works include the removal of redundant services within the Guildhall, the disconnection and isolation of all interconnecting services between the Guildhall and Abbey Hall, the modification of retained services within the Guildhall, and the installation of new services to accommodate newly formed rooms and partitions.
The scope of this contract is principally confined to the Guildhall. Works within Abbey Hall are limited to the safe disconnection and isolation of interconnecting services. The reinstatement or modification of retained services within Abbey Hall is excluded from this contract and will be undertaken by others.
The Contractor shall provide a complete, fully operational installation, including all incidental and ancillary works necessary to achieve a compliant and functional system. The works shall be carried out in accordance with the project drawings and specifications, the JDP General Technical Specification for Mechanical and Electrical Services (Parts 3M and 3E), and all relevant statutory regulations, British Standards, and industry best practice.
The Guildhall, together with Roysse's School and the Gateway at the west end of the Guildhall, forms part of a Grade II listed complex. Contractors shall ensure that no building services, fixings, supports, or ancillary installations are attached to, penetrate, or otherwise adversely affect the listed building fabric. The extent of the listed elements and any associated heritage constraints shall be verified on site prior to the commencement of works, and all activities shall be undertaken with due regard to the historic significance of the building and in accordance with any applicable conservation requirements.

Invitation to Tender - Evaluation Impact Case Studies
CONTEXT
The Future Parks Accelerator (FPA) programme ran from 2019 to 2022 working intensively with 8 Local Authorities to help identify and develop new ways to care for the urban natural environment, create a step change in how people engaged with parks and greenspaces in the participant cities; and identify new ways to fund parks and greenspaces for the long term, putting the management and funding of green space on a more sustainable footing.
7 of the FPA Cohort remained closely involved with the project partners following the completion of the programme and helped to co-design the follow-on ten-year programme. Nature Towns and Cities, launched in 2025, was designed to support transformative change in up to 100 towns and cities. These 7 places form the Nature Towns and Cities pioneer cohort continue to receive support from the programme while also supporting and mentoring new participants.
Although evaluated throughout the programme, it was anticipated that on-the ground impacts would lag behind the implementation of these changes.

We are seeking a consultant to undertake a follow-up study of the 7 places still participating in the Nature Towns and Cities Pioneer Cohort to understand what has happened since 2019 (and especially since 2022), and to generate robust, independent evidence of longer-term impact, including write up stories of whole place change, evidence the benefit to places and communities of investing in capacity-building and systems-change approaches and support Nature Towns and Cities & Pioneer Cohort to understand and articulate the causal link between the interventions and their longer-term impacts.
