Who we are

Heritage Network is a membership organisation full of people who have delivered amazing heritage projects. Our mission is to help others do the same.

We operate throughout the UK supporting community organisations, charities and social enterprises to restore, reuse and manage historic sites for the benefit of their communities.

We support our members through peer-to-peer learning, knowledge sharing and networking. Our guidance and advice helps our members throughout their regeneration projects and when they are managing their buildings and spaces. Heritage Network gives this extraordinary grassroots movement a united voice, highlighting our members impact and representing their views to government and funders.
