## Description

Operation of a concession contract to manage lake activities \(swimming &amp; boating\) at Beckenham Place Park\. Beckenham Place Park is Lewisham's largest park and at 95 hectares it is the one of the largest parks in London, and South-East London's biggest open space\. The Council developed an ambitious plan to attract funding to restore this historic parkland and its listed buildings in order to increase use\. The plan received considerable financial support from the National Lottery Heritage Fund and from the Mayor of London allowing a major investment plan to be implemented in 2018-19\. This contract will offer leisure opportunities for local people and others to get active and keep fit outdoors through accessing open-water swimming and related activities\.
