## Description

Barking and Dagenham is London’s Growth opportunity\. We have plans for 35,000 new homes and 10,000 jobs across seven growth hubs\. Growth of this scale will have a profound effect on the physical, social and economic character of the borough\. To be successful and sustainable this must be based on a detailed understanding of people and place, which is why we need a compelling strategic vision for our parks and open spaces so we can: • Prioritise, plan and commit resources to improve green spaces across the Borough; • Make the case to funders for increased external resources; • Make informed decisions about the future management of the service; and • Ensure future development is informed by open space needs and requirements and aligns with other corporate priorities\. This is an exciting but challenging commission that in brief will comprise the following elements: • A comprehensive and robust quantitative and qualitative assessment audit of the Borough’s parks and open spaces and associated facilities; • A consultation exercise with residents, stakeholders and partners to establish current levels of satisfaction and identify current and emerging needs, expectations, and aspirations; • Production of a new overarching Parks and Open Spaces Strategy for the Borough; and • Site specific development masterplans for a number of parks\. For more detailed information please see the attached Consultants Brief\. Additional information: For any queries please contact Andy Johnson, LBBD Service Manager for Parks Phone: 020 8227 5289\. Mobile: 07972 003 773\. Email: andy\.johnson@lbbd\.gov\.uk The deadline for submissions is 5pm Friday 7 October 2016\.
