Victorian Society

Description

The Victorian Society's members' generosity enables them to fight for the Victorian and Edwardian buildings people value. Every day, they work to protect Victorian and Edwardian buildings from demolition and destruction.

Its Conservation Advisers, guided by experts on its Southern Buildings Committee and Northern Buildings Committee, help local planning authorities and churches to avoid needless harm to Victorian or Edwardian buildings. The reuse of  wonderful historic buildings, rather than wasteful demolition and rebuild, is key to a sustainable future. The society's input has saved landmark buildings ranging from St Pancras in London to the Albert Dock in Liverpool.

The Victorian Society runs numerous events and visits, developed by its events committee, and publish books, journals and a membership magazine to entertain educate about the society's subject. The Victorian Society is an IHBC recognised CPD provider.
