AB Heritage Introduces New Outreach Manager
AB Heritage is delighted to announce the establishment of an Outreach Manager position, a pivotal role aimed at advancing the consultancy’s mission to cultivate an understanding and appreciation of cultural heritage.
As the newly appointed Outreach Manager at AB Heritage, Laura Buckley, a professional in education, will lead on the development and execution of a range of activities designed to inspire and engage pupils across all educational levels about the significance of heritage within their communities. For older students, the initiative aims to clarify the career pathways within commercial heritage consultancy, by demonstrating its interesting blend of scientific discipline with historical studies, research, and effective communication skills.
Andy Buckley, Managing Director of AB Heritage, explains, “This marks a significant milestone for AB Heritage. It represents our evolution from a smaller consultancy focused solely on delivering top-tier heritage services to clients pursuing development plans, to a position where we can offer professional services and take up our proactive role in local communities. Laura’s addition to our team, with her extensive educational background, heralds the commencement of a pilot program of educational heritage activities in the Northeast, which will pave the way for nationwide implementation.”
Laura Buckley says “I am extremely excited to develop the education outreach programme at AB Heritage. I believe that helping young people explore their heritage will help cultivate a stronger sense of self and belonging. This will also positively impact their mental health and well-being. Interactive workshops will ignite curiosity and instil a lasting passion for learning– which is so important. I cannot wait to get started!”
The introduction of the Outreach Manager role underscores AB Heritage’s commitment to fostering a lasting legacy of heritage appreciation across all aspects of modern life, and particularly through the protection of key historic assets and their enrichment of our public realms.
