Notice Title

Rapid Evidence Review - Density of use of greenspaces and routes in and close to urban areas

Notice Description

Natural England is seeking to improve our understanding of people's use of greenspaces and routes within and close to urban areas, and this study seeks to understand how many people can use greenspaces and still get benefits. This project is a Rapid Evidence Review relating to people's use of greenspaces in and close to urban areas. (The review does not need to consider the density of people in green places further from urban areas but evidence relating to such places may be useful and included). This is a short project that is expected to be completed by the end of March 2023. Depending on the findings Natural England may consider further assessment of relevant evidence but that is not part of this contract. Details provided in the reference for quotation attached. Additional information: To apply your response should be returned to the following email address by: Email to pippa.langford@naturalengland.org.uk by 23:59 on December 4th, 2022. Ensure you state the reference number and 'Final Submission' in the subject field to make it clear that it is your response.
