CREATE PLACE Leadership Programme - Historic England (in person)

Are you passionate about heritage, digital innovation, and placemaking? Do you work with or support heritage initiatives in the North Staffordshire area? Join us for a special session featuring Historic England, the public body dedicated to championing and protecting England’s historic environment.

Historic England is an executive non-departmental public body sponsored by the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport. Their mission is clear:

"From the extraordinary, to the everyday, our historic places and spaces matter to us all. That’s why at Historic England we work together with people across England, to discover, protect and bring new life to our shared historic environment – so the heritage that surrounds us all, lives on and is loved for longer."

This session will consider how Historic England's participatory and cultural programmes support this mission. The talk will offer insights into:

• What Historic England is and the work they do

• How we can collectively champion our historically rich places and stories
• How we can protect and preserve our heritage
• How we can deepen public understanding of the significance of our historic spaces

The Create Place Heritage & Digital Leadership Programme, funded by the National Lottery Heritage Fund, supports professionals and community leaders working at the intersection of heritage, co-creation and placemaking. It offers opportunities to build leadership skills, learn from and with peers, become part of a larger heritage network, and it explores various digitally supported approaches to heritage-led regeneration.
