Design & Historic Champions

The champions work within their authorities providing leadership, advocacy and influence. Their knowledge and position within the authorities enables them to add value to regeneration initiatives  by ensuring that the built and historic environment is taken into account when making decisions.

MADE* supports the training and development of Design and Historic Environment Champions. Part of this programme of support includes "Building in Context" seminars and acting as a regional contact for advice and infomation.
