Building Brum presents: Civic Voice 2018 Conference
July 2017 marked the 50th anniversary of the Civic Amenities Act 1967 that saw the introduction of Conservation Areas in the UK. The town of Stamford, Lincolnshire, was the first to be designated as a Conservation Area and, in recognition of this, Civic Voice is running the Big Conservation Conversation and will be using this conference to ask the question How can we balance conservation and regeneration?
The weekend will bring together a range of speakers who represent different background and professions, from national policy makers to community groups, who have helped inspire change in their local Conservation Area. The workshops, walks, talks and speakers will highlight specific lessons and consider and showcase innovative responses that are showing a common theme: How can we balance conservation and regeneration?
