About us

The Yorkshire and Humber Historic Environment Forum was formed in 2002 to provide a single voice in the region for all those concerned with the current and future management of the historic environment. We aspire:

To promote understanding and appreciation of the historic environment, and its positive role in the regeneration and renaissance of Yorkshire region
To help market the historic environment to visitors to the region
To develop integrated policies relating to the historic environment of the region
To act as a single focus for consultation on the future of the historic environment in Yorkshire
To share information on the plans of individual organisations and to work in partnership together and with others
To share best practice in the management of the historic environment, including the need to develop skills and continuity in conservation and craftmanship, and the need to build capacity and engage communities in such management
To help English Heritage in its role as lead body advising government and local government on the historic environment in Yorkshire
