## Notice

Currently where Suitable Alternative Natural Greenspace (SANG) is identified as being necessary as part of a strategic solution local authorities are required to provide SANG land at a minimum of 8ha / 1000 population. Whilst in some local authority areas there is sufficient availability of undeveloped land to meet this standard, in other areas alternative measures may be required due to a lack of suitable land. This project is a Rapid Evidence Review relating to people's use of greenspaces in and close to urban areas. This is a first enquiry into this topic and needs to be completed by the end of the financial year 22/23. We may commission further work in future years should this be required 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.
