IHBC’s 2020 Brighton School conference, on ‘OLD TOWNS : NEW FUTURES’ sponsored by HESPR member Heritage Collective, explores the challenging topic of our towns and urban centres, and to help make it more sustainable we are moving much of our CPD support online, so our regular School update on historic local pubs is going digital, as an App!
Duncan Philips, Chair of the South East Branch which is host to the School, said: ‘The IHBC’s Schools need to play their role in reducing all our carbon footprints, so moving our regular School pub guide to an online app, with a pdf download option, is a sensible – if admittedly first and small – step forward.’
Chris Reynolds, who prepared the School’s Brighton pub listing for the App, said: ‘In developing the guide I simply followed the model used in previous Schools – including the enjoyable experience of visiting and testing the pubs!’
‘Making the guide into an app – which was carried out the IHBC’s office – was a simple step forward that extends user access while also reducing the amount of paper given out to delegates’.
Director Seán O’Reilly said: ‘While Schools are going green, we also have to respect our sector’s business model, and which still uses lots of paper resources. However by joining in this new transition to digital, we hope to mark the beginning of a step change in the carbon footprint of our schools and wider CPD support.’
