## Description

Leicester City Council invites Tenders for the provision of outdoor gym equipment\. "Outdoor gyms" are collections of body weight driven and other non-adjustable gym equipment placed in parks and other outdoor spaces to promote and provide facilities for physical activity\. Currently there are outdoor gym facilities at the following Leicester parks: • Braunstone, • Evington • Knighton • Spinney Hill • Victoria and • Willowbrook Park In addition mini gyms have also been developed at Craven Recreation Ground and Lamen Road open space\. Typically a full gym will consist of 15-20 items of equipment and a mini gym will contain less than 8 items of equipment\. The first outdoor gym area in the City was developed at Evington Park in 2009 and the most recent installation was Spinney Hill Park in July last year\. Without exception all the existing outdoor gyms experience a high level of use and have been very well received by the local community and wider park users\. The Supplier will be required to provide fitness equipment that is durable, innovative and safe and that meets the varying needs of all users, whilst representing the very best in terms of financial value\. Leicester City Council is looking for more than just the supply of equipment\.
