What is being bought
The Mersey Forest Team invites tenders to consolidate, professionally edit, and design the Staged Pathway guidance for woodland creation on Vacant and Derelict Land (VDL). The approach has been developed with Defra funding via the Nature for Climate Fund.
This RFQ seeks a contractor to produce three outputs-(1) a concise summary, (2) a comprehensive technical print-style report, and (3) a clear infographic-so that professional practitioners can understand and apply a seven-stage, threshold-based methodology that manages risk and avoids unnecessary costs.
