## Summary

The Croydon Council is inviting tenders for the "Nature Conservation Volunteering & Community Support Service," aimed at enhancing habitat maintenance and improvement efforts within the borough, specifically in sites designated for conservation like those in the South London Downs National Nature Reserve. This procurement is classified under recreational, cultural, and sporting services, and it operates under an open procedure method, with a tender period ending on 6th September 2021. The contract is valued at £30,000 and is set to commence on 3rd November 2021, concluding on 1st October 2022. The service is to be delivered across England, within the borough of Croydon.

This tender presents a valuable opportunity for small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary community and social enterprises (VCSEs) focusing on environmental management and conservation strategies to grow their business. By participating, these businesses can contribute to important local ecological initiatives while potentially securing a contract that helps expand their operational footprint and portfolio in community and environmental services.

## Notice

The Council invites quotations for the provision of Nature Conservation Volunteering & Community Support Service. We are looking for a service provider to deliver the nature conservation volunteering programme across the borough, through supporting new and existing friends of groups, other suitable groups so far not engaged and by delivering a two day per week borough wide volunteering project. This will support the delivery of essential habitat maintenance and improvement works we need to deliver for sites under Countryside Stewards arrangements and those with special designation, such as the sites now included in the South London Downs National Nature Reserve.
