The STBA & SPAB Conference
This year, the conference was focused around Sustaining Building
Attendees from all across the UK gathered to discuss how traditional buildings can help us meet net carbon zero, whilst still maintaining the integrity of our built heritage.
The event saw numerous industry experts presenting ideas and research findings throughout the day, as well as Q&A sessions and workshops in retrofit and the green agenda.
SPAB (Society for the Protection of Ancient Buildings) is a charity co-founded by William Morris in 1877, the manifesto for which still underpins the Society’s activities today. STBA (Sustainable Traditional Building Alliance) is made up of the UK’s leading organisations associated with the conservation and improvement of traditional buildings, and their aim is to deliver sustainable but traditional built environments. Big thanks to everyone who presented and all the people we got chatting to. It was great to share experiences and where we collectively we would like to take building conservation.
