Conservation conference offers hope in tough times

Conservation conference
The Grade II-listed One Moorgate Place is host to this year’s conservation conference

CIOB’s annual conservation conference, in partnership with English Heritage, takes place on 25 April at One Moorgate Place, London.

Set against the backdrop of rising costs, CIOB Conservation Conference: New Ideas for Tough Times, tackles the question of how we protect our built heritage when times are tough and explores new ideas and innovations that can help us generate real efficiency.

Leading experts from the UK and Europe will share examples, experience and their knowledge of different types of historic buildings and structures, giving delegates the inside track on how projects were successfully delivered and how they can apply what was learned to their own decision-making.

At a live panel discussion and Q&A session, experts will address many common issues faced in the sector.

Speakers include: Rory Cullen, chair of CIOB’s Heritage Group and director of Cullen; Rebecca Thompson, senior estate manager, English Heritage; Catharine Dass, architect; Graham Bell, director, Cultura Trust; Ruth Knight, English Heritage; Keith Bottomley, deputy policy chairman, City of London; Ben Melham, director of Mortice Consulting; and Michael Figg, head of buildings, Somerset House.

Tickets are £150. Book via www.ciob.org/events.
