In plain English

Wye Valley NHS Trust is hiring a grounds maintenance contractor to look after gardens, lawns, and outdoor areas across their hospital buildings. The work includes keeping these spaces safe, attractive, and environmentally responsible to support patient care and visitor experience.

What the buyer wants

• Provide comprehensive grounds maintenance services (grass cutting, hedge trimming, planting, seasonal upkeep) across the hospital estate • Maintain safe and attractive outdoor areas that comply with health and safety legislation • Deliver work that supports patient wellbeing, staff welfare, and visitor experience while meeting environmental sustainability standards

Requirements

What could rule a small business out: Most single-person or very small gardening businesses will struggle with this because NHS contracts typically demand substantial insurance, formal health and safety systems, and evidence of managing large multi-site operations, plus the response paperwork is heavy.
