myself in the educational and research priorities that the historic and built environment conservation professionals in the IHBC seek to celebrate.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>IHBC Chair James Caird said: \u2018We feel very privileged to have Carole serve as this year\u2019s judge for our increasingly prestigious annual Gus Astley Student Awards.\u00a0 The award is open to outstanding items of taught-coursework, and encourages the promotion of best practice, raises standards, and helps those in the early stages of their careers.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Carole\u2019s background in heritage planning, management and funding aligns perfectly with the priorities of the IHBC\u2019s own members, especially as they promote the historic environment as a driver for urban and rural regeneration.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Our Student Awards celebrate a corresponding excellence in conservation\u2013related course work by students on UK courses.\u00a0 As a Trustee of Historic Royal Palaces and the Oxford Preservation Trust, Carole is particularly interested in the governance of the sector just now.\u00a0 This, alongside her legacy in the conservation and heritage sector \u2013 including as past Director of Planning and Development at the former English Heritage \u2013 means she is perfectly placed to address the challenges of being our Awards judge for 2017.\u2019<\/p>\n<hr
