Soft Market Testing for the future commission for the first series of community engagement activities to help inform and shape the new Local Plan Vision and Principles. As such it is primarily focussed on engagement with established local democratic bodies such as parishes. We acknowledge that there are a much wider body of stakeholders (particularly referenced in the Economic Growth and Development Overview and Scrutiny Committee papers of 14th Jan 2025 which we will engage with via themed sessions in a further round of consultation. It will start to capture the: opportunities, challenges and aspirations for communities across Cornwall, identify what makes a good place to live, where people can flourish help us understand if there is anything missing within their existing community The RFQ is for information of what the requirement details will be, at this stage we are only expecting to receive expressions of interest from suppliers based in Cornwall, which can be via the portal or by direct email to Jo McCabe. The need for all local authorities to use the money they spend to drive sustainability, promote social wellbeing, minimise environmental damage and build community wealth is vital. This combined with potential procurement reform following our exit from the European Union, gives Cornwall Council an opportunity to make a real difference in our communities and ensure that we use our sourcing to drive change and embed social improvements that benefit our whole community and helps contribute to the Cornwall we want.
