Description
As part of our planning for the period of our next strategic plan (2019 onwards) we would like to commission consultants to help us with the delivery of a public consultation on HLF's future strategy. The consultation is currently due to run from November 2017 - January 2018. Please note that this timescale is not fixed, and this work may need to move back, potentially up to February 2018 - May 2018.
Consultation aims to support HLF to better understand the stakeholder response to proposals in order to identify further opportunities and risk areas, as well as to start to build support. Through the consultation we will:
• Communicate proposals for National Lottery funding for heritage for 2019-2024, including potential changes from the current position.
• Engage stakeholders with direction of travel and gain an understanding of their views on proposals.
• Identify key areas of opportunity and risk to feed into further development of proposals
• Use consultation feedback to develop strategic framework proposals that will win broad endorsement from stakeholders
The target audience for this consultation is organisations who are:
• Heritage sector stakeholders, including:
o umbrella organisations;
o individual organisations; and
o strategic agencies.
• Public sector stakeholders including local authorities
• Broader VCS stakeholders with UK, country or regional remit
• Church organisations and other faith-based groups
• Private sector organisations engaged with heritage
• Stakeholders related to the key HLF policy areas, eg. place, resilience, inclusion, digital, well-being, housing.
• Other funders and investment partners
• Applicants and grantees
• Non-applicant groups - focus on ensuring heritage is more inclusive
The report from the consultation will be used by HLF staff to inform the development of the framework for National Lottery funding for heritage for 2019-2024.
