\u2026we encourage and support all those who show interest and talent\u2026<\/span><\/em><\/h2>\n

\u2026 sure Matthew will find the adjudication on the submissions a rewarding experience\u2026<\/span><\/em><\/h2>\n

Matthew Slocombe said: It’s an honour to be involved in the judging of the Gus Astley award.\u00a0 I knew Gus well and valued his contribution to both IHBC and SPAB.\u2019<\/p>\n

\u2018It’s also particularly important, at a time when it may be harder than usual for new graduates to find work in the profession, that we encourage and support all those who show interest and talent.\u2019<\/p>\n

Bob Kindred, Chair of the Gus Astley Trustees said: \u2018I am delighted that Matthew has agreed to be Institute\u2019s Guest Judge for the 2020 Awards.\u00a0 Matthew – previously the SPAB’s head of casework \u2013 also is Secretary of the Joint Committee of the National Amenity Societies and a member of the Conservation Committee of the Churches Conservation Trust, so he understands the sector \u2019<\/p>\n

\u2018Having made an overview of the submissions, it is evident to me that many of the candidates this year have demonstrated a clear sightedness and undertaken thorough research into under-regarded aspects of heritage policy and practice.\u00a0 I am sure Matthew will find the adjudication on the submissions a rewarding experience.\u2019<\/p>\n

Chris Wood, Chair of the IHBC\u2019s Education Committee, said: \u2018I\u2019m delighted that the Gus Astley Trustees have managed to secure Matthew as the Guest Judge for 2020.\u00a0 The considered approach and breadth of experience during his career to date will ensure a thorough and informed review of the submissions \u2013 good luck to him, and to all those submitting\u2019.<\/p>\n
