The annual report and review of The Institute of Historic Building Conservation (IHBC), the Yearbook, has just been published, featuring volunteering in the built environment and the IHBC\u2019s own work.<\/span><\/p>\n

IHBC President Trefor Thorpe said: \u2018Volunteering has always been at the heart of the IHBC\u2019s success, so it is right that we should feature volunteering in the 2012 issue of the sector\u2019s vital annual update, the IHBC\u2019s Yearbook. Our diverse volunteers and members are especially well placed to provide insights into the potential of volunteering, and explore the practicalities and potential of the volunteer in conservation.\u2019<\/p>\n

Jo Evans, IHBC Chair said \u2018It is great to have the Yearbook continue its leading role in highlighting success and challenging thinking across our sector. This year it celebrates the ways in which volunteers and professionals work together, and encourages innovative thinking on how professionals and volunteers might best work together. With cutbacks and job losses weighing heavily, volunteering is a critical issue for us all, as well as a sensitive one.\u2019<\/p>\n

\u2018I\u2019m delighted that, with the help of our publishing partners Cathedral Communications, we have yet again produced an annual review of our own work that is also a resource for the sector as a whole. As ever, our Yearbook looks outside the IHBC as much as inside, making the publication an essential reference for anyone with an interest in conservation.\u2019<\/p>\n

\u2018Our case studies range widely across the IHBC\u2019s interests, from the local contributions of our past president David Lovie, whose personal support for \u2018Community Heritage\u2019 might have been missed in the upswell of Localism had it not been for the Yearbook, to Loyd Grossman, a heritage advocate who needs no introduction from us, but also, at heart, just another volunteer who cares hugely about our places.\u2019<\/p>\n
