Notice Description

The Elan Links scheme, is seeking to recruit a suitably qualified person or persons to develop a soft cover book celebrating the achievements of the past 6 years of project delivery and consolidating all the research and reports produced over the last 6 years for the Elan Links: People, Nature & Water landscape partnership. The contract is for a period of 5 months, commencing in October 2023.The successful applicant/s will have a strong track record in this type of work.This contract will deliver the following1. In depth engagement with the project to understand the reports and research produced over the last 6 years then writing/commissioning texts and sourcing/commissioning images to reflect outputs and achievements2. Coordination of contributors who may/will provide text and imagery3. Editing, layout, graphic design and print ready proofsThe final product to be delivered will be a print ready proof that brings together all of the outputs the Elan Links landscape partnership has worked towards over the last 6 years. In essence the point of the book will be to look at the work produced over the lifetime of the project and demonstrate the links between them. For example, it is simple to say we have improved habitats but harder to demonstrate the impact / effect this could have on communities or the arts, or to demonstrate changes over time. It is imagined that the book will be visual, informative, understandable, accessible and relatable. The successful tenderer/s will be given full access to all reports, strategies, recorded and written resources, photographs and staff to create a complete picture of the scheme and all its facets.We envisage that this contract could be delivered in either one or two parts1.
