Leisure, culture and sport contracts expiring in Wales: 21 worth £3.9m

21 leisure, culture and sport contracts in Wales carry a published end date, worth £3.9m between them. They are held across 13 buyers, and the typical one is worth £75k.

14 of them expire within twelve months, and 4 are already inside the window where the buyer would normally be shaping the replacement. That is 67% of this market back in play inside a year.

32 different suppliers hold the work, and the three largest hold 9% of it. That is a fragmented market, which usually means no single relationship is decisive and a smaller supplier can win on merit.

4 are frameworks rather than a single contract, so part of this market is reached by getting onto a supplier list first and competing for call-offs afterwards.

The most active buyers are Velindre University NHS Trust (3), City & County of Swansea (3), Llywodraeth Cymru / Welsh Government (3).

The contracts here are most often held by Create Change London Ltd (1), Newport Winter Wonderland Ltd (1), Helen Booth (1).
