    Brief

    Milton Keynes City Council is seeking an operator to manage three leisure facilities: Bletchley Leisure Centre, Woughton Leisure Centre, and Windmill Hill Golf Course. The contract period is 10 years with an optional 5-year extension (15 years total). The total indicative contract value covers the full 15-year period and will be subject to inflation adjustments. The Council may transition to an agency model arrangement during the contract term and reserves the right to modify terms accordingly. This is a significant opportunity to manage key public leisure assets within a council committed to sustainability. Notably, Woughton Leisure Centre will benefit from connection to the city's District Heat Network (DHN), part of the Public Sector Decarbonisation Scheme, supporting the Council's net zero carbon emissions target by 2030. Prospective operators should demonstrate experience in leisure facility management, sustainability practices, and the ability to adapt to potential operational model changes.
