The Town Council is seeking a supplier for the design, hire, maintenance, installation and storage of Christmas lighting and decorations in Burnham-on-Sea and Highbridge. The contract requires companies with proven, demonstrable experience in similar public festive lighting projects able to manage client and user-group liaison, design, construction and installation, ongoing maintenance and secure storage. Companies must show they take practicable steps to ensure equal access and equal treatment in employment and service delivery where appropriate, and must demonstrate an excellent health and safety record free from enforcement action. The council has a budget of up to £40,000 per annum, with a three-year contract total of £120,000; submissions must include initial designs, budgets and a breakdown of how the funding will be spent.

This opportunity is best suited to firms experienced in public Christmas lighting and decorations who can provide end-to-end services (design through storage) and evidence strong H&S and equal access policies. Key considerations include the requirement to submit initial designs and budgets, demonstrate client and user-group liaison capability, maintain an excellent health and safety record (no enforcement actions), and deliver within the £40,000 per year budget for a three-year term.
