Tender 037/2021 - Provision of Heritage Interpretive Services for Interpretation Panels on CANN project sites across NI, Ireland and the Isle of Islay

Provision of Heritage Interpretive Services (Research, Planning, Copywriting, Design/Manufacture with delivery and installation) for Interpretation Panels on CANN project sites across Northern Ireland, Ireland and the Isle of Islay in Scotland. • The CANN Project (Collaborative Action for the Natura Network) is a six-year, cross-border environmental project spanning Ireland, Northern Ireland and Scotland which is funded by the EU through the INTERREG VA Programme and managed by the Special EU Programmes Body. The project which will run to December 2022, is being led by Newry, Mourne and Down District Council in partnership with 10 other organisations consisting of scientific and research institutions, public-sector bodies, charities and community organisations. • Over the project’s lifetime, we aim to deliver an improvement in the conservations status of 27 sites across the three jurisdictions, focusing on Natura 2000 sites (SACs) comprising wetland, peatland, and freshwater habitats alongside the species associated with these specific environments. • The project team works alongside local landowners and stakeholders to implement a range of conservation actions to protect these internationally important environmental sites, and to ensure the sustainable management of the habitats long after the project has finished. The project also aims to raise awareness of the importance of these sites and their species, the threats which the site face and to encourage the public to get involved and make sustainable choices. The interpretation planned for a range of sites across the three jurisdictions is part of this awareness raising programme. Some sites will have a single panel, others (defined as visitor sites) will have a series of panels.
