## Notice

Wigan Council aims to commission collaborative partner(s) to work on the development of a refreshed strategic vision. This will allow us to: o Identify and retain the many strengths we have developed as a council through 'The Deal' over the past decade. o Respond effectively to the challenges we are now facing. o Identify our priorities for the future and be equipped with the skills and tools to effectively address these. o To put us in the right place to build a refreshed movement with purpose and intent Our partner(s) will: * Identify an approach to embed themselves with us and establish a process to carry out a fundamental review of what works and what's missing; * Lead, with our support and learning, on a deep engagement approach in our communities - both to create a product to inform our refreshed approach, and embed a legacy for ongoing listening and shared learning and response. * Help us, alongside our communities, partners and workforce to establish a refreshed commitment as relevant to today as the Deal was in 2012; * Leave us with new skills and tools to embed practical approaches that fully realise our refreshed approach; creating the momentum, excitement and belief for widespread adaption and adoption. Wigan Council invites creative and experienced organisations with a track record in facilitating change, innovation, research and participation to work in partnership with us.
