National Trust - Nature Towns & Cities Communities Programme Co-design

The National Trust is looking for an external consultant to deliver a creative, inclusive and participatory co-design process for the Communities programme of Nature Towns and Cities, a UK-wide mission to bring nature and green space to urban areas for everyone's benefit, backed by public, private and third sector organisations.

The successful consultant will:

(1) Thoroughly understand the enablers and barriers affecting hyperlocal VCSE organisations' ability to create, improve and care for nature in their neighbourhoods, and enable more time people to connect with nature on their doorstep.

(2) Engage participants in discussion and interrogation of some potential solutions and interventions for tackling issues at the systemic level.

(3) Develop solutions and interventions with those who will be involved in their implementation (including the Nature Towns and Cities Coalition members).

(4) In so far as possible, secure the buy-in and where necessary participation of key actors in the solutions and interventions that have been developed.

Submission deadline is February 13th at 4pm.
