CONSERVE • RESTORE • CONNECT

Join a Network Built Around Responsible Conservation

ConserveConnect brings together the professionals, craftspeople, suppliers and organisations whose knowledge and skills help historic buildings and places survive, adapt and remain valued.

Joining places your expertise within a specialist UK network connecting historic building owners, communities and project teams with the people, materials and knowledge needed for responsible conservation.

We believe good conservation is more than a technical service. It requires respect for historic fabric, traditional skills, communities and the long-term life of a place. That principle shapes who we welcome and how ConserveConnect develops its network.

Membership does not buy endorsement. Listings are reviewed for suitability, while ConserveConnect recognition and vetting remain separate, evidence-based processes independent of Basic, Standard or Premium membership.

WHERE WE DRAW THE LINE

Conservation Must Be More Than a Label

ConserveConnect is not intended as a general advertising platform. We do not accept listings or advertising from organisations whose principal activities are materially at odds with the conservation principles on which the network is built.

  • Demolition-led or displacement-based approaches to historic places.
  • Development that unnecessarily erases significant heritage character.
  • Activities materially inconsistent with ConserveConnect’s published conservation, community or ethical principles.
Membership is subject to ConserveConnect’s listing standards. We reserve the right not to accept, or to remove, listings whose activities are materially inconsistent with the principles of the network.
