The Heritage Alliance’s fortnightly e-bulletin, Heritage Update, has reached its 400th edition!
First launched in February 2002 (Read Issue #1), Heritage Update has for the past 17 years covered the latest developments in the heritage world, including reporting on Heritage Alliance members news, government policy, consultation opportunities, planning, rural, culture, and funding news, events alongside courses and both paid and un-paid vacancies.
The Bulletin is currently read by over 14,000 individuals every fortnight throughout the UK – growing at an average rate of 25 new subscribers every week. Heritage Update also draws in a significant number of readers from across the European Union and further afield in countries including in the USA, South Korea, Hong Kong, Taiwan, India, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, Mexico, Turkey and Brazil.
Peter Ainsworth, Chairman of The Heritage Alliance, said:
“Update is essential reading for anyone who cares about what is going on in the Heritage world. Bringing together news of events, publications, politics and people, it is the single comprehensive guide to all that matters in our movement. Its regular publication is a fairly heroic task which depends on the active participation of our Member organisations and of course on the skill and commitment of the small team that puts it all together – we all owe them a big Thank You. Onwards to 500!”
The Heritage Alliance would like to thank you for continuing to read and support Heritage Update, and asks that you keep sending your latest news/jobs/events which makes the Bulletin such a success!
We are also grateful to the Historic Houses Foundation for its sponsorship to improve the presentation, and to ensure that it continues to reach so many people.
