Notice Information

Notice Title

Seagrass Restoration in North Wales

Notice Description

BACKGROUND For the last 2 years WWF UK has been working in partnership with Swansea University and Project Seagrass to demonstrate the feasibility and create a blueprint for large scale seagrass restoration in the UK to support ocean recovery and restore vital ecosystem services provided by healthy seagrass meadows, services that have diminished with the loss of up to 92% of the UK's seagrass over the last century. Our aim is to provide a blueprint for both the physical restoration process, as well as community and stakeholder involvement in the design, implementation and management of seagrass restoration projects. In turn, we believe this will help inform approaches of other coastal habitat restoration projects. The intention of this contract is to engage a local contractor based in North Wales to work with the project partners to develop a detailed Project Activity plan, meeting NLHF funding specifications, mapping the restoration and engagement work required to deliver 10ha of restored seagrass by 2025. CONTRACTING PROCESS Please provide a detailed written quote for the work described above by 29th November 2021. Please include information on your experience to deliver the work. Please note that we are particularly keen to hear from interested parties even if they are only partially able to offer a solution. Please contact us for a discussion if you require more information and clarification. The quote should include any expected travel costs. The contractor will be expected to provide all their own office and communication facilities. Please email your response to rzanre@wwf.org.uk & sclement@wwf.org.uk Additional information: Please note that this opportunity has been updated to reflect an extended response deadline and increased budget flexibility. Please contact us if you would like to discuss the opportunity.
