This Request for Quote is for the appointment of a contractor who will provide: a) A mapping exercise of current relationships and projects between colleagues within Newcastle University with communities, groups and organisations in the West End of the city and consider this alongside the groups that have been involved in the consultation carried out by GSS Architecture in order to identify any gaps. b) Work through the extensive feedback that GSS Architecture have gathered from stakeholders and map this against the engagement objectives. c) Use the mapping exercise to develop recommendations of the most appropriate ways of engaging community groups taking a long term view, this could include the creation and management of a reference/advisory group. d) Undertake a review of best practice in longitudinal community engagement with particular attention on how to ensure sustained engagement and techniques for reaching diverse audiences. e) Working with the CAV Community Engagement Group and community stakeholders to identify short, medium and long term priorities for engagement. f) Identify how the strands of engagement will work and which communities will be engaged in each. g) Identify the methodologies of engagement and clear guiding principles which will deliver the agreed objectives. h) Devise a creative and engaging programme of activity which will address the engagement objectives and ensure the inclusion of a diverse range of communities that live and work in and around the site.
