What is being bought
Published requirement descriptionThe following contract opportunity invites suitably experienced suppliers to work with Natural England and the Nature Towns and Cities Partnership to scope and shape options for a 'Nature and Health Accelerator' change programme.
The programme will be rooted in innovation and cultural change, to explore, develop and test how to mainstream nature and health approaches in urban settings.
Central to the work will be the ability to engage with and co-create options for a future programme with leaders from multiple sectors (including but not limited to the environmental, health, physical activity, Place-Making and, economic growth sectors).
The main task is to design and deliver a collaborative, cross sector co-design process to shape a future Nature and Health Programme. The goal of the programme will be to improve health, both at a neighbourhood (population) level and amongst targeted communities, by creating better access to high quality green and blue space and improved green infrastructure in our towns and cities as well as innovative new approaches to nature-based solutions.
