Heritage Minister Alun Ffred Jones AM addresses Treftadaeth 2 in Llandudno, 23 October 2008<\/p>\n

The Institute of Historic Building Conservation (IHBC), the UK\u2019s professional body for historic environment conservation specialists, along with the Civic Trust for Wales and Cadw, have joined up in Llandudno to celebrate the rich built heritage of Wales and the broad public interest in its historic places. Treftadaeth, organized by Trust with the IHBC, and funded by Cadw, focused on policy developments following the inaugural event in Cardiff in April 2008, also supported by the IHBC.<\/p>\n

With friends from a huge range of local and national heritage organizations, the event provided an invaluable forum for representatives of the heritage sector in north and mid-Wales to be informed and consulted on government strategy and priorities for the historic environment. Alun Ffred Jones, Minister for Heritage, was the keynote speaker, and said: \u2018I will shortly begin work on a strategic statement on the historic environment in Wales and I see this conference, following on from the success of the first Treftadaeth event, as an important opportunity for as many stakeholders as possible to engage with the process.’<\/p>\n

Nathan Blanchard, IHBC Council Member for Wales, said \u2018This is a classic example of how the sector can work in partnership to promote a common agenda for our historic places\u2019. IHBC President, Eddie Booth, who led talks on the day, said he was \u2018hugely impressed by the enthusiasm of the delegates for their heritage; if government can match that, then the outlook is great!\u2019.<\/p>\n
