The Ranger Team's workload includes project work, such as the Coast-to-Coast and Fix the Fells.\nThe Historic Environment Team commissions specialist consultancy support to inform the conservation, management and enhancement of the National Park's historic environment. This may include heritage impact assessments, conservation area appraisals, historic building recording, conditions surveys, archaeological investigations, landscape and townscape character assessments, design advice, and other specialist heritage and built environment studies to support planning, conservation and place-shaping objectives.\nOur needs are specific and will vary. We are looking for Suppliers who understand the work we do and not only can provide exceptional services, but who can contribute to our wider Vision for the Lake District. Please note that the Lot Descriptions in section 2 are included to provide some background information on the work of the Authority. The following are examples of types of services which may be required by our Ranger Service. This is not exhaustive but is intended to demonstrate the breadth of the services which will be required:\nProviding services on a recurring and annual basis, such as our bridge maintenance responsibilities and sourcing of materials for daily use;\nProviding advice and practical work on specific public sector funded projects, such as the Coast-to-Coast project.\nProviding specific advice to our internal team of individuals and organisations with whom we operate, for internal projects involving our own land and property, and also to our partner organisations such as Fix the Fells." }
