The project name is 'An inclusive and sustainable future for Weelsby Hall'. A grant has also been secured from the Pilgrim Trust. Linkage is seeking to appoint a design team incorporating the following disciplines: • Lead Architect • Structural & Civil Engineer • Mechanical & Electrical Services Engineer • CDM Principal Designer Linkage's vision is to safeguard Weelsby Hall's heritage by renovating and refurbishing the historic buildings for productive use, creating jobs and generating an income to fund their on-going maintenance. The proposed scheme includes, in summary: • Refurbishment and reconfiguration of the Hall for use as a Centre of Excellence for Care Training, including a sensory integration suite, and accessible offices to the first floor • Renovation of the Courtyard Outbuildings to create residential care accommodation for people with more complex needs (higher levels of acuity) • Repair and refurbishment of the small Oasis building for use as a base for Linkage's Maintenance team The initial contract will be let for the duration of the project's Development Phase (RIBA stages 0-3), expected to last 12 months, with the option to extend for a further period to cover the Delivery Phase (RIBA Stages 4-7).
