The return of the CIOB Conservation Conference heralds support opportunities.

CIOB’s popular annual Conservation Conference celebrates its 15th anniversary this year with a return to a face-to-face event after a two-year virtual break. The conference will take place on Tuesday 26 April at Church House, Westminster, London, in partnership with English Heritage. The theme for 2022 is: Our Built Heritage – Lessons for Resilience.

The event will be chaired by CIOB CEO Caroline Gumble and president Mike Foy, joined by guest speakers including Dr Robyn Pender (Historic England), Graham Bell (Cultura Trust), Professor May Cassar (UCL Institute of Sustainable Heritage), Rob Woodside (English Heritage) and Professor John Edwards (University of Wales Trinity St David).

Participants will learn how key organisations in the UK and Europe have responded to recent events – with covid and climate change at the forefront. Typically, governments the world over are reacting to the consequences of climate change by imposing knee-jerk legislation which is inappropriate for traditional buildings – causing problems which will need to be resolved in the near future.
