What is being bought

Published requirement description

The project comprises the design and build, including completion of the design and construction, of the bereavement centre and all associated elements. This includes the core buildings such as the crematorium (including the cremator hall), ceremony and committal spaces, administration offices, and a function or wake building. This covers extensive external and landscape works, including memorial gardens, remembrance areas, natural burial grounds, a pet cemetery, and wider landscaping with planting, ecological zones, pathways, and integration with the lakeside setting to enhance biodiversity. In addition, the scope includes infrastructure and access works such as car parking, internal roads, drainage, utilities, service connections, and external lighting. The development also incorporates sustainability and environmental measures, including the use of recycled materials (such as recycled plastic cladding and reused earth bunds), biodiversity protection and enhancement, and careful integration with the surrounding natural environment and wildlife habitats.
