## Summary

The Rossendale Borough Council is currently inviting tenders for a project titled "Invitation to Tender to work with RBC for Heritage Lottery Fund Bid - Stubbylee Hall." This opportunity falls under the industry category of Development Consultancy Services and is located in the North West region of the United Kingdom. The tender is in the active stage and is set to close on 6th July 2018, with the contract period scheduled to commence on 1st August 2018 and concluding on 26th October 2018. The procurement method is classified as a direct procurement through a single tender action, as the project is below the usual threshold.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses focused on heritage management and development consultancy, particularly those experienced in preparing and delivering successful Heritage Lottery Fund bids. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) would be especially well-suited to compete, given their agility and potential for collaboration with the Council to enhance the future use of Stubbylee Hall. Successful applicants could position themselves as preferred partners for future heritage projects, thereby growing their portfolio and impact in the sector.

## Notice

We would expect the Heritage Partner to work with RBC to undertake a skills audit of the Stubbylee Master Plan Group and to develop the HLF bid at no cost, on the assumption that they would then be RBC's preferred delivery partner for the programme if the bid is successful. tubbylee Hall is owned by RBC. It is currently underused, and is partially used by external organisations for office space. The building has a covenant that restricts its future use. It is in poor repair. An effective partnership of RBC and other organisations is working to deliver a masterplan to improve Stubbylee Park, but does not have the capacity to develop a vison for the future of the hall. Heritage Lottery Resilience funding is available to organisations in the UK who want to build their capacity or achieve strategic change to improve the management of heritage. An application to the fund will allow RBC to work with a Heritage Partner to develop a vision for the future of the hall. Delivering a successful Resilience Fund project will result in RBC and partners being in the position to have an agreed vision for the Hall, and be able to apply for larger amounts of funding to develop the Hall. To take the bid forward, RBC as landowners needs into a Partnership Agreement with a Heritage Partner that has experience of writing and delivering successful HLF bids
