In 2023 the Sinai Park House Trust received £51k from National Lottery Heritage Fund (NLHF) to prepare a viability and options appraisal for a restoration of the buildings and find a viable usage. This work took place over the next 12 months and since then the Trust has submitted an Expression of Interest to NLHF and been invited to apply for development stage funding in May 2025. We now have a strong basis of understanding and a revitalised board, with five new members joining in 2024, to proceed with this application. We are hoping to fund a post of Project Manager for the NLHF application and some other preparatory works through an application to East Staffordshire Borough Council Ward Enhancement Programme which we will know the outcome of by the end of October 2024.
We are inviting Expressions of Interest in this role so we can get an indication of the likely costs and of the availability of suitable professionals. We welcome interest from freelance individuals and larger consultancies. Details on how to submit your Expression of Interest are within the below document.
