London Historic Buildings Trust welcomes you to a special training opportunity as part of our popular 'Building Futures' community training programme.

Led by London Historic Buildings Trust this training session introduces the topic of built heritage projects, and explores some of the fundamental elements that required at the outset to help ensure a successful project: need, demand, vision and voices.

The workshop is aimed at those new to these projects, whether that be community or volunteer groups, charities, local authority staff, or anyone else interested in bringing a historic building back to life for the benefit of local people in London.

We will be covering:
