Notice Title

English Heritage - Pendennis Castle and Down House Audience Research

Notice Description

The English Heritage Interpretation Team aims to improve the visitor experience by enhancing how we bring to life the stories of our places to our diverse range of visitors. These projects can be anything from a panel scheme at a free site, to a new museum and whole site interpretation scheme, with a number of new interpretation projects taking place across our sites each year. This research would cover two sites: Pendennis Castle in Cornwall and Down House in Kent. Both are due for an upgrade to their existing interpretation schemes and would benefit from a deeper understanding of audience needs and wants in relation to each site; however, the focus differs between sites. Applications to be submitted by email to the contact listed by 5pm on 5 February 2024.
