The UK used to have thousands of them. Today many have lost much of their life and their commercial activity, mainly due to online and out-of-town shopping. Does it matter? If they are not needed for shopping, why now write them off? In many cases that will happen, but it other cases the high street has a value beyond being a place to buy things. They have a critical mass of activities with community and social value. They bring people together in ways that strengthen the links between people, and with the places where they live.<\/p>\n<p>Historic buildings are usually a big part of that. The buildings\u2019 quality may inspire us; they may evoke the history of the place; they may provide accommodation of a size and quality that we could not build today; they may be well located in relation to pedestrian routes and public transport; and they may provide more flexible accommodation than the highly controlled and enclosed shopping centres that we were once told were the future of in-town retailing. IHBC members know how to manage change on the high street in ways that make the most of those historic assets. \u2026<\/p>\n<p>For more see <a href=\"https:\/\/ihbconline.co.uk\/context\/171\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Context 171<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Reading <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ihbc.org.uk\/page55\/context\/index.html\"><em>Context<\/em><\/a> helps IHBC members develop their skills across all of the IHBC\u2019s Areas of Competence, and so is a critical baseline in addressing priorities in <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ihbc.org.uk\/learning\/cpd\/index.html\">Continuing Professional Development<\/a> (CPD)<\/p>\n<p>Access the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ihbc.org.uk\/page55\/context_archive\/index.html\">online archive<\/a> and see the <a href=\"https:\/\/ihbconline.co.uk\/context\/163\/\">issue online<\/a><\/p>\n<p>See more IHBC background and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ihbc.org.uk\/learning\/cpd\/index.html\">guidance on IHBC CPD<\/a> and on how you might use past, current and future issues of <a href=\"https:\/\/ihbconline.co.uk\/cont_arch\/\"><em>Context<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<p>See the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ihbc.org.uk\/resources\/IHBC_CPD_guidance_notes_160709.pdf\">formal guidance paper on IHBC CPD<\/a>(scheduled for update)<\/p>\n<p>See more on the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ihbc.org.uk\/learning\/applicant_guidance\/index.html\">IHBC Competences and Areas of Competence<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Access the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ihbc.org.uk\/page55\/context_archive\/index.html\">online archive<\/a> and see the <a href=\"https:\/\/ihbconline.co.uk\/context\/163\/\">issue online<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The new issue of the IHBC\u2019s journal, Context No. 171 takes as its theme \u2018Change on the high street\u2019, looking at issues from retail adaptation and funding to case studies and more, all alongside feature issues, briefings and reflections, including &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/?p=32891\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-32891","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-ihbc-newsblog"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32891","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=32891"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32891\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":32893,"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32891\/revisions\/32893"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=32891"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=32891"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=32891"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
