## Summary

The Big Lottery Fund (operating as The National Lottery Community Fund) is seeking supplier(s) to support Climate Action Fund grant holders, focusing on building capacity, generating evidence, and creating a collective voice to inspire climate action. The procurement involves research and development services and consultancy, with a value of £5,500,000. The tender is in the selective procurement method stage, with a tender deadline of 19th July 2023. The contract period is from 1st April 2024 to 31st March 2030, offering opportunities for SMEs and VCSEs in the United Kingdom.

This tender by the Big Lottery Fund presents opportunities for businesses involved in research, development, and consultancy services related to climate action. SMEs and VCSEs are particularly suited to compete in this tender due to the emphasis on community-led climate change initiatives. Interested businesses can visit the procurement website for more details and consider how their services align with the three key strands of enabling, informing, and inspiring climate action across communities in the UK.

## Notice

The National Lottery Community Fund are seeking to commission a supplier(s) to facilitate and deliver support and learning services across the Climate Action Fund grant holders. The three strands are based on what we believe require distinct activities, skills and expertise to deliver, but we recognise their interdependent relationship and that they do not sit in isolation from each other. It will be down to the supplier(s) who bid for the work as to how they feel best to deliver the needs of the ITT. We anticipate that the first strand (Enable) is the key/integral part of the overall delivery of the contract, from which the other strands (Inform and Inspire) will 'hang'. ENABLE - Build the capacity of CAF grant holders to undertake more impactful community led climate change INFORM - Generate and facilitate evidence and learning about community led climate action which will support grant holders and progress towards the CAF vision INSPIRE - Create and curate a collective voice to inspire and encourage more and more communities across the UK to take climate action
