Glasgow Building Preservation Trust presents a full day event (in association with the Institute of Historic Building Conservation and Strathclyde Building Preservation Trust) looking in detail at the fascinating and invaluable work of Scottish Building Preservation Trusts (BPTs) over the last 25 years which has given a new lease of life to some of Scotland’s most important historic buildings at risk.

Eminent speakers from a range of organisations including the Association of Preservation Trusts Scotland, Scottish Civic Trust, Historic Scotland and Ecotec Consultants (who recently completed a review of Scotland’s BPTs) will share their knowledge and experiences with the audience. The afternoon session will be dedicated to showcasing a variety of past, current and future building projects including The Old School, Campbeltown and Maryhill Burgh Halls, Glasgow.
