IHBC West Midlands Branch CPD Event

Heritage Law and Enforcement


Friday 6th December 2024


The last IHBC West Midlands CPD event of 2024 will be held on Friday, 6th December at the Birmingham and Midlands Institute (BMI), a Grade II* listed building a short walk from Birmingham New Street (Grand Central) train station.

The event is entitled Heritage and Law Enforcement and will look in detail at the legislative and enforcement options available for the protection of historic buildings.

The cost of the event is £35 for members and £45 for guests and non-members – a bit higher than usual on this occasion, due to the cost of hiring the venue, however still a bargain when compared to CPD events from other organisations. The day will consist of a morning of presentations and discussions, with lunch and a tour in the afternoon, followed by Christmas social drinks at a nearby pub. See the attached draft agenda for further details.

Please take a moment now to reserve your spot, which includes lunch and tea/coffee throughout the day. Guests are more than welcome to attend. If you have special dietary requirements, please email us the specifics as soon as you’ve registered, so that we can ensure you’ll be well looked after on the day.

Registration is at 9:00AM for a 9:45AM start.
