## Summary

The Kent County Council has issued a tender titled "SC22292 - Cross-Channel Geopark Geosites Identification Signage and Interpretation Strategy" within the "Construction work" industry category. The procurement stage is currently at the tender stage. The deadline for tender submission is set for 21st November 2022, with the contract period scheduled to run from 13th December 2022 to 31st March 2023. The total value of the contract is £40,000.

This tender presents an opportunity for businesses in the construction sector to engage with the Kent County Council in developing and implementing an interpretation strategy for the Cross-Channel Geopark. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) would be particularly well-suited to compete for this tender, given the emphasis on visibility and brand recognition through signage design and installation at various Geosites in the Kent Downs area.

## Notice

The Kent Downs AONB Unit, through the Interreg France Channel England (FCE) programme, are seeking an interpretation partner to produce a multi-year interpretation strategy for the Geopark on the Kent Downs side of the Channel. We are also seeking for this partner to implement the first phase of this strategy, namely the design, production, and installation of initial Geopark identification signage at approximately 25 Geosites throughout the Kent portion of the Geopark, the identification signs will be common in the UK and France. The Geosites Signage will improve the visibility and brand recognition of the Cross-Channel Geopark. Overall, visitors to Geosites will become more aware of the Cross-Channel Geopark project. The Interpretation Strategy will set out a long-term plan for the interpretation of the Geopark across Kent, both at Geosites and other locations where appropriate, as well as online and digitally. The Kent Downs AONB Unit has identified an initial list of Geosites (see Table 1) and will secure relevant permissions for the installation of all Geosites Signage.
