Youth Action volunteers conserving heathlands in the South Downs
Invitation to quote for South Downs Youth Action summer 2020 project
Dear partners,
The South Downs National Park Authority has been awarded funding by the
Ernest Kleinwort Charitable Trust to deliver a summer programme of South
Downs Youth Action.
South Downs Youth Action is a volunteering scheme enabling young people
aged 16-25 to get a taste of volunteering in a National Park.
We want to support our fantastic partner organisations to provide a greater
range of opportunities and allow more young people to get involved in the
South Downs this summer. If you are interested in holding a youth action day please get in touch: [email protected]
Invitation to quote
The invitation to quote is now live for organisations who could take on the
contract to work with us to deliver this exciting project.
We have overseen South Downs Youth Action days in the past 6 months and it
is now ready to involve more organisations and reach more young people. We
are confident this can have a massive impact for young people and voluntary
organisations in the National Park.
We have placed an invitation to quote for the commission above on SDNPA’s
In-tend portal. You can see more details of the commission by accessing the
portal through the following link:

If you think you might be interested in submitting a quotation, you can register
on the site and then download the ITQ documents.
The closing date for responses is 12 noon on Friday 13th March 2020.
Defra seeking diverse voices for South Downs National Park Authority
Do you want to help set the strategic direction for one of the country’s most amazing landscapes?
Defra – the government department that oversees National Parks and Areas of
Outstanding Natural Beauty - is appointing five new members to the South
Downs National Park Authority (basically the board/trustees for the National
Park).⠀⠀As we look to the challenges facing nature and the planet, it's more important
than ever before that National Park Authorities benefit from diverse and dynamic voices.
⠀Members of the Authority receive a Basic Allowance and can also receive
reimbursement for travel and other expenses.
⠀If interested, feel free to get in touch or check out the information on the
website: https://publicappointments.cabinetoffice.gov.uk/appointment/national-
park-authorities-and-area-of-outstanding-natural-beauty-conservation-boards-
secretary-of-state-members/
NB If you think sitting on a National Park Authority isn’t for you, don’t dismiss
the idea until you have a chat with us first. Remember, National Parks are for
everyone.
Deadline: 6th March 2020 at 12noon
