## Notice

Hull 2017's volunteers became an iconic image of Hull's year in the spotlight. And the volunteer programme is set to continue, with a development plan in place that will oversee the long-term sustainability of the initiative. As Hull 2017 restructures there is a requirement to maintain, by outsourcing, the marketing and communications elements of the programme. Particular areas of this work include e.g. periods of volunteer recruitment, training and networking events. The contract will cover the approximate 2-year period May 2018 through to April 2020.
