Tender opportunity
Interpretation Planning and Design Consultant
As part of the Development Phase of Project Light and Space, Great Malvern Priory Parochial Church Council (PCC) is seeking an experienced Interpretation Planning and Design Consultant to explore opportunities for sharing the extraordinary, long history of this ancient place with both existing and new audiences and reflecting the exciting opportunities for creative and innovative approaches to storytelling.
A key output of the role will be to prepare a detailed and fully costed Interpretation Plan which meets current guidance to support a Delivery phase application to The National Lottery Heritage Fund by October 2027.
Using money raised by National Lottery players, The National Lottery Heritage Fund supports projects that connect people and communities with the UK’s heritage. Project Light and Space is made possible with The National Lottery Heritage Fund. Thanks to National Lottery players we have been awarded a c£700k grant to develop the Project which will conserve eight of its unique medieval English stained glass windows and surrounding stonework, repair towers and roofs, relocate internal facilities to a new-build extension and create interpretation and hospitality space, improve accessibility, introduce new level floors with underfloor heating, improve the biodiversity of the churchyard and instigate a programme of engagement, activity and new interpretation. The full cost of the project, including the Delivery phase, is c£12m.
The PCC (the Client) wishes to establish a project team which is in place throughout the life cycle of the Project Light and Space. This post will be instrumental in both the Development and Delivery phases; this appointment is initially for the Development phase with an option to later extend to the Delivery phase, subject to funding, acceptable performance and adherence to procurement procedures.
The Development phase runs to October 2027, with the Delivery bid then submitted.
