Tees Urban Nature Network (TUNN) Evaluation Partner

Redcar and Cleveland Borough Council, working in partnership with Middlesbrough Council, Stockton-on-Tees Borough Council, Tees Valley Wildlife Trust, Sport England's You've Got This initiative, Business in the Community, Teesside University and a range of environmental and voluntary sector organisations, is delivering the Tees Urban Nature Network (TUNN) as part of the Nature Towns and Cities programme. The project aims to create healthier, greener and more resilient urban networks by improving green and blue infrastructure, strengthening connections between people, place and nature, and supporting inclusive, community-led approaches to nature recovery across the Tees Valley.

The Council is seeking to appoint a suitably experienced evaluation partner to work alongside the partnership as a critical friend, supporting ongoing learning, capacity building, reflective practice and evidence generation across a complex multi-partner system. The evaluation is intended to support continuous improvement during delivery while also providing robust evidence of outcomes, impacts and learning relating to people, place and nature.
