IHBC Northern Ireland (NI) Branch members have been invited to attend ‘Conservation in Common’ a cross-disciplinary series of events for professionals working in the built heritage sector and the Department for Communities (DfC).
… first of the series of collaborative CPD events…. new initiative….
IHBC NI Branch lead and Branch Chair Des Cairns said: ‘The was the first of the series of collaborative CPD events, a new initiative for the Historic Environment organisations in NI, with the leadership of HED.’
The first programme event was the RTPI NI conference, was held in the Throne Room at Hillsborough Castle, Northern Ireland’s ‘Historic Royal Palace’.
‘It was a very engaging and interesting event with a range of speakers from a Planning, Local government and Legal perspective.’
‘The presentations included local case studies – one of the most interesting was the Primark Bank Buildings, a key Belfast city centre landmark, which suffered from devastating fire in 2018, but has been a prime example of collaboration of private and public sector.’
The next one is led by IHBC NI Branch, and is on line.
