Churchill renews cleaning deal at Whipsnade Zoo
10 March 2016 | Herpreet Kaur Grewal
Support services provider Churchill has extended its partnership with ZSL Whipsnade Zoo to carry on delivering general cleaning services at its 243-hectare site in Bedfordshire.
The original contract started November 2011 and has now been extended for a further three years.
Service delivery includes cleaning and periodic deep cleaning, and additional ad hoc cleaning. As part of the contract improvement process, Churchill will be introducing two electric vehicles to the contract to reduce emissions.
The organisation is also implementing a three-level staffing structure to correspond with seasonal patterns, with increased levels in place during the summer months.
The zoo is owned by the Zoological Society of London (ZSL) – a charity devoted to the worldwide conservation of animals and their habitats. ZSL also owns London Zoo in Regent’s Park.
The contract follows other wins so far this year for Churchill, with North Herts College, Arts University Bournemouth, Luton College, Surrey Heath Partnership, and a partnership with Skanska, Woking Borough Council, and Kent County Council.
