Sport and Physical Activity Project Briefing London Borough of Barnet Dawn Wakeling - Commissioning Director, Adults and Health

London Borough of Barnet - Overview Demand on local services will continue to rise, driven by a growing population, particularly young and older residents. This is a particular issue for Barnet, which in 2015 will become London’s most populous borough, with an estimated 393,000 residents. The highest rates of population growth are forecast to occur around the planned development works in the west of the Borough, with over 113% growth in Golders Green and 56% in Colindale by Circa 367,000 residents The Borough will become increasingly diverse, driven predominantly by growth within the existing population. One of the key challenges will be meeting the diverse needs of these different and growing communities Conservative Controlled (1 Seat Majority)

London Borough of Barnet Corporate Plan: Strategic Objectives The council, working with local, regional and national partners, will strive to ensure that Barnet is the place: of opportunity, where people can further their quality of life where people are helped to help themselves where responsibility is shared, fairly where services are delivered efficiently to get value for money for the taxpayer

Sport and Physical Activity Project Outcomes A new leisure management contract and the redevelopment of facilities is a critical supporting element in the achievement of our vision to ensure Barnet is an active and healthy Borough. Project Outcomes To deliver a leisure management contract that provides a robust financial position to the local authority, crucially aligned to increasing engagement and levels of physical activity. Public health outcomes are reflected within a new leisure management contract, a holistic approach that is not specific to interventions. Refurbishment and redevelopment of the leisure asset portfolio that continues to engage with residents, whilst innovating within the marketplace. Facilitate mutually beneficial partnerships that connect and align services to deliver a more cost effective and sustained physical activity pathway.

Sport and Physical Activity Project – Leisure Management Contract Leisure facilities should be regarded as a central supporting component to the creation of a model for Barnet which supports residents in becoming more active. Consideration should also be given to how parks, open spaces and other council assets can be used to achieve this aim. In line with councils across the country, this must all be achieved within the context of continued significant financial pressures. The new Leisure Management contract needs to deliver; 1.A net surplus of £1.5m for the council. This target income will fund the prudential borrowing needed to fund the construction costs. 2.The successful management of the five facilities that make up the councils leisure estate. 3.A service that aims to increase the health and well being of the residents of Barnet.

Sport and Physical Activity Project Briefing Leisure Management Procurement Lesley Kippax – Procurement Lead

Moving the Project Forward LBB wish to appoint a “Strategic Partner to support in delivering key public health outcomes for Barnet, sustained by a robust financial position”. The procurement process will look for community engagement, innovation, integration, collaboration, flexible environments, performance and improvement of Leisure Services. A two stage procurement (incl PQQ) with negotiation is the preferred option at present, this will be informed during this Market Consultation Phase. Key to the project is an outcome / output contract that delivers measurable health improvements A chance for bidders to truly realise, deliver and innovate a new model of leisure provision.

Social Value Local Employment Agreements In order to manage development related job opportunities the Council will use a Local Employment Agreement (LEA). A LEA sets out the skills, employment and training opportunities to be delivered from development. Evaluation & KPIs Delivery of wider social and economic benefits will form part of the quality evaluation. Subsequently, it is intended to include Public Health KPIs and KPI’s relating to social and economic benefits within the contract to the community
