The SPAB and STBA are holding a joint an energy efficiency conference in Carlisle on Friday 7 November, organised with the support of the IHBC North (NO) Branch, featuring prestigious speakers from the research and conservation practitioner communities and recognised by the IHBC as continuing professional development (CPD).
The IHBC’s North Branch has played an important role in organising the event – following on from their new business plan and associated targeting of training needs – while Branch Chair Jules Brown will also be welcoming delegates.
The Society for the Protection of Ancient Buildings (SPAB) writes:
This annual event brings together expert speakers from leading heritage organisations to present their latest research and discuss the most up-to-date thinking on how traditional buildings actually perform.
The SPAB have ourselves been carrying out research into energy efficiency in traditional buildings since 2009 and will present our latest findings at the seminar.
Following on from the success of previous years, there will also be an exhibition of retrofit products and systems that we believe are appropriate for use on traditional buildings.
The event is a must for anyone involved in traditional building retrofit or energy efficiency research, as well as any building professional, owner or contractor who wants to gain up-to-date research findings, thinking, products and information in order to upgrade and retrofit a traditional building sympathetically and appropriately. It is recognised for continuing professional development by the Institute of Historic Building Conservation (IHBC). We would like to thank the IHBC North branch for their help in organising this event.
