Notice Title

Digital Skills for Heritage Tranche 4 Leading the Sector: Promoting and Building Senior Digital Leadership across the Heritage Sector

Notice Description

Overview The National Lottery Heritage Fund, formerly the Heritage Lottery Fund (HLF), was set up in 1994 under the National Lottery Act and distributes money raised by the National Lottery to support projects involving the national, regional and local heritage of the United Kingdom. We operate under the auspices of the National Heritage Memorial Fund (NHMF). In January 2019 we launched our current Strategic Framework: 'Inspiring, leading and resourcing the UK's heritage'. See The Fund's website for more details. The Fund invests in the full breadth of the UK's heritage and, through our funding, we aim to make a lasting difference for heritage and people. This is reflected in the outcomes for heritage, people and communities which underpin our grant-making. Digital Skills for Heritage is an ambitious PS3.5M initiative which runs from February 2020 to March 2023, designed to drive up digital capabilities across the heritage sector. It promotes digital skills and leadership and directly supports digital skills development, providing a range of support to suit the needs of a diverse sector. Our Leading the Sector strand fosters and promotes senior level digital leadership. In 2020 we commissioned Culture24 to deliver our first Leading the Sector project, a professional development course which supported 16 senior leaders. This second commission follows that work but takes a new approach. The Fund wishes to commission a series of events that will showcase, promote and develop digital leaders and leadership across the heritage sector. Activities will attract and be of value to Trustees and Executive Leadership members from organisations that deliver heritage related activities from across the whole of the UK. Aims and Objectives The aim of this commission is to provide a series of free events or activities that highlight, promote and develop digital leaders and leadership across the UK heritage sector. The primary focus of this commission is to promote good practice, raise discussion and facilitate networking in relation to digital leadership. The Digital Skills for Heritage initiative primarily targets and invests in small to medium sized organisations. To balance that, this commission should aim to support medium and large sized heritage organisations. The Tranche 2 Taking Digital Forward (T2) and Tranche 5 Answering the Sector's Digital Questions (T5) projects in the Digital Skills for Heritage initiative include related leadership activities and resources. The successful bidder will coordinate with these project leads in order that Digital Skills for Heritage leadership resources and events can be promoted across projects wherever appropriate. Your tender proposals must be sent electronically via e-mail before the tender return deadline of 11.00 am on the 15 09 2021 to the following contact: Ruth.Dench@heritagefund.org.uk Additional information: UPLOADED ANSWERS TO BIDDERS' QUESTIONS. 6.9.2021.
