Derry City and Strabane District Council invite suppliers to tender for PeacePlus Reimage-Recycle.

This project is a soft-skills, environmental 1 year initiative (approximately) working with 80 adults on a cross-community basis on the topic of recycling, upcycling and zero-waste.

Its key focus is within the Foyleside District Electoral Area (DEA) geographically but will require cross-community linkages elsewhere across the wider city and district to ensure the cross-community balance is achieved.

Whilst open to all, recruitment will specifically target work with Men’s and Hen’s Sheds in the local Foyleside community as well as outreaching cross-community (including the Waterside) to engage adults with a learning or physical disability, adults with mental health issues, adults from BAME, Refugee and Asylum seeker identities and other interested participants from the wider city.

The project delivery will have a strong emphasis on inclusion and understanding diverse needs and identities.

The project will factor in reasonable adjustments for inclusion and equality to ensure reasonable access to participation.

Workshops will teach the relevant skills to turn discarded items from the local recycling centre and/or own items into useful, new items.

Importantly, there should be informal dialogue opportunities built into the project so that participants can make friends and understand some of each other’s life experiences.

Some upcycling should ideally include the ‘re-imaging’ of types of bonfire materials (pallets, cable reels).

Any products produced can be donated to assist local community groups, individuals in need, or kept – they should not be sold.

Arising from the Co-design process in the Foyleside District Electoral Area (DEA), this project should strive to bring key benefit to that area.

This project is under the Thriving and Peaceful Communities Theme.
