## Description

Forestry England are looking to develop a shared Strategy for Young People that brings together the unique assets of our two collections at Bedgebury Pinetum and Westonbirt Arboretum to deliver a shared offer for young people \(0-25\) that creates experiences bespoke to the aspirations, needs and expectations of young people today\. To do this, we are looking for a supplier to help us to develop a deeper understanding of our potential to support young people both within formal education and non-formal settings through their journey to adulthood\. We aim to commission an insights project to develop a deeper and richer understanding of young people; what they, and the organisations that work with them, need and want from us\. Coupled with this we want to know our 'place' within the botanic garden education network both nationally and internationally so that we can tailor our programmes accordingly\. Additional information: Forestry England are currently scoping our requirements to ensure that the specification of requirements and future tender documentation accurately reflects the offerings of the market\. We invite companies from the market to register their interest in this future requirement and provide feedback on potential clarifications on the feasibility of our emerging plans\. We intend to publish a procurement exercise for this requirement December 2021/January 2022\.
