Gus Astley Student Award 2012: Judge announced

Terry Levinthal, Director of Conservation Services and Projects at the National Trust for Scotland has been announced as the judge for the 2012 IHBC Annual Gus Astley Student Award.

Terry Levinthal said: ‘I am, on behalf of the National Trust for Scotland, delighted to support the IHBC in assessing this year’s Gus Astley Awards.’

‘The commitment and knowledge captured within the submissions is essential to the future health and vitality of the historic environment conservation sector. It is not necessarily a great leap between coursework and professional output. For so many us, our lifelong interest and engagement in our heritage took firm root in such coursework. I look forward to this daunting task of assessing this year’s IHBC Gus Astley Student Award’.

Contestants for the IHBC’s 2012 Student award range from undergraduates learning about historic places to career architects honing skills in understanding how places work. The winner of the 2012 award will be announced early in 2013 and, with any other commended students, will be offered a residential place at the IHBC’s 2013 Annual School. The 2013 School, which is supported by English Heritage, will take place in Carlisle, in June, and will explore skills in conservation.
