Notice Title

Provision of The North Isles Landscape Partnership Oral History Project

Notice Description

The authority has a requirement for the provision of an oral history project across the north isles focusing on documenting the social, economic and cultural history of the islands.

Lot Information

Lot 1

The North Isles Landscape Partnership Scheme (NILPS) has funding to deliver an oral history project across the north isles focusing on documenting the social, economic and cultural history of the islands. The spoken word has been a vital means of communicating past events and stories across generations of North Isles communities. Learning about the history of an island community can help those living there understand what has shaped the island they now live in. As generations pass and their memories and experiences fade this project can help to capture voices and stories that wouldn't otherwise be documented, and it can provide an important link to the past that people can learn about, appreciate and value. The community consultation carried out during the earlier stages of the North Isles Landscape Partnership Scheme highlighted the importance people placed on capturing the oral history of their communities. As a result, this oral history project is a key deliverable of the scheme.

Renewal: Contract duration of 27 months includes a 3 month option to extend.
