## Summary

The North York Moors National Park Authority is currently engaged in a tender process for the project titled "Rye Reflections: a community engagement and arts project about landscape change." This initiative falls under the Community Action Programme in the services industry, aiming to reconnect local communities with their river landscape. The procurement method is an open procedure, and the tender period concluded on 20 July 2020. The contract was awarded on 31 July 2020, with an estimated contract value of £9,988. The contract is set to commence on 3 August 2020 and will continue until 30 December 2022. The project is located in the Yorkshire and the Humber region of the United Kingdom.

This tender presents an excellent opportunity for businesses focused on community engagement, arts, and environmental conservation.

The engagement activities aim to produce compelling interpretations of wildlife and landscape changes, thereby encouraging artisans to contribute to sustainable and artistic solutions inspired by local communities. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary and community sector enterprises (VCSEs) are encouraged to participate in this project.

## Notice

The Rye Reflections community engagement project sits within our Reconnecting People stream of work. The Ryevitalise Partnership wish to inspire local communities; to reconnect people with the river landscape and the wildlife that the river and surrounding area supports. We want to document changes in species abundance that have happened within the living memory of the community, including changes in the landscape and how it is managed. We want to highlight these changes, to help the community understand shifting baselines, and inspire the next generation to take action to conserve species and habitats in the future through our school outreach sessions. The anecdotal case studies we capture will include engaging and inspiring memories from the local community that will provide a rich body of content to inform the wider interpretation and events programme.
