The IHBC has welcomed the launch of the first Corporate Plan for Historic Environment Scotland (HES), covering the period 2016-19 and setting out the vision and direction of the new charity and Non-Departmental Public Body (NDPB), with a contribution to the Storify ‘Be part of the #hesstory!
Jane Ryder, Chair, Historic Environment Scotland, reported:
‘The plan sets out our vision and mission and our core values: Collaborative; Professional; Innovative; Open and Respectful. It also adopts five, key strategic themes, mirroring those of Scotland’s first strategy for the historic environment, ‘Our Place in Time’: Lead, Understand, Protect, Value and Perform, explaining what these mean for HES, what we aim to deliver and how we plan to achieve this.
In conjunction with the plan’s launch, we have also rolled-out our new corporate website and brand. Our new logo reflects our role as custodian of the built heritage and lead body for the historic environment, with the keystone of the arch crucial for the stability of the whole.
We have also produced a new informational video which explains how we will work with the sector to ensure the historic environment is cherished, understood, shared and enjoyed with pride by everyone.
We are looking to the future with ambition and confidence, with our Corporate Plan highlighting how protecting our past will help shape our future.
Working together, we can achieve that ambition for the benefit of Scotland as a whole.’
