Great Ouse Collective Action Project

2026-11-03

WRAP is exploring a Collective Action Project (CAP) for the Great Ouse catchment. For WRAP, a Collective Action Project means a locally coordinated project where different organisations work together on shared water challenges. The aim is to bring together local organisations, growers, land managers, businesses and other partners to identify shared water challenges and agree practical actions that will result in a healthy more resilient catchment. A recent scoping phase identified Cambridgeshire and Bedfordshire as priority areas because of their importance to UK fresh produce supply and the water pressures facing the catchment. These include water scarcity, pollution, sensitive habitats and the need to protect rivers, chalk streams and lowland peat. WRAP expects to appoint a single accountable organisation, which may draw on partners or subcontractors. The successful organisation will need strong local knowledge, good relationships with farmers and land managers, experience of catchment or water-related projects, and the ability to coordinate partners and work collaboratively with WRAP. This RFI will help WRAP understand whether there is enough interest, experience and capacity for this work, and whether this is the right approach or if an alternative would be more suitable. This RFI does not ask for pricing and does not commit WRAP to running a tender or awarding a contract.
