### Lot Information

Lot 1

Our main aim is to make the heritage of the Park accessible to sections of the community who have not previously fully engaged with heritage, for example young people. Additionally there are key target groups identified within the Park project that we would be keen to offer opportunities to. Thus we will be particularly interested in approaches which engage with difficult to reach groups.
