United Kingdom – Community action programme – T24-090BUS PEACEPLUS Unlocking Silent Heritage

Derry City and Strabane District Council invite suppliers to tender for PeacePlus Unlocking Silent Heritage. The purpose of this tender is to deliver a cross-community engagement programme to complement a capital project led by Derry City and Strabane District Council. The project has a history and heritage focus, based around cemeteries (rural and urban) across the geographic spread of the council area. It will be important that it is treated as a district level project with participants to be recruited from across the wide geography of the council (and potentially cross-border) area and in particular, areas close to the cemeteries within the project. The capital project element, delivered entirely by the Regeneration Team in Derry City and Strabane District Council and separate to this tender, is focused on works to 6 historic cemeteries across the district: Enagh, Glendermott, Urney, Corrick, Pubble, Scarvagherin (see map links in Appendices). This will preserve the heritage and make the sites publicly accessible. Alongside these capital works, council is tendering for two external elements to be delivered. Both the capital and programme elements combined will provide and/or improve access to these spaces, to make them ‘shared spaces’ and to provide historical interpretation to these local heritage assets.
