The IHBC\u2019s social network has grown rapidly in recent months, not least following the lively developments at the 2014 School, and now our Linkedin group has passed 4000<\/span>.<\/p>\n

Dave Chetwyn, IHBC past chair and lead Linkedin Group Manager, said: \u2018The membership of the IHBC Linkedin Group continues to grow, with new members from all around the globe. There continues to be a diverse range of discussions, providing a platform for people to share knowledge and experience\u2019.<\/p>\n

IHBC Director Sean O\u2019Reilly said: \u2018The strength behind the IHBC\u2019s Linkedin Group is that we welcome news, views and issues from anyone with a genuine interest in the conservation of historic places. It\u2019s open to everyone, members and non-members, and easy to join too. Simply click the links, but do please note that we control access to minimize the inconvenience of \u2018spamming\u2019 for Group members. But all you have to do is: ask!\u2019<\/p>\n

\u2018As well as hosting discussions, we also highlight jobs, events and news items of interest to Group members. Non-members can catch up on current news and issues direct from the IHBC this way, of course, but with our competitive membership rates, great member benefits and support for low-waged and bursaries, you\u2019re missing a trick if you are interested in heritage and don\u2019t actually just join up\u2019.<\/p>\n

\u2018And now we have our on-line application system, it could not be easier to try out what we have to offer!\u2019<\/p>\n
