Heritage Champion
A chance to have your say on what matters to you in Salford’s historic built environment.
A Heritage Champion is a member of the council who uses the historic environment as an asset to help achieve strategic goals and bring a better quality of life to the community.
The roles and responsibilities of a Heritage Champion include:
- Making the council aware of important historic environment issues and opportunities relating to Salford.
- Promoting the value of the historic environment as a catalyst for regeneration and neighbourhood renewal, and the potential it has for attracting economic investment and funding in certain areas.
- Raising the profile of the historic environment in planning documents by working with planning officers to ensure key issues and opportunities are identified and addressed.
- Working with key organisations both within the council, for example Children’s Services, and outside the council, such as Greater Manchester Archaeological Unit, to maximise the benefits the historic environment can have on people.
Salford’s Heritage Champion is Councillor McIntyre. However the Heritage Champion needs to know about opportunities on how the historic built environment can help create a better Salford for the people of Salford. If you have any ideas on how Salford’s historic environment can be better made use of, or specific examples, feel free to contact Councillor McIntyre, with the contact details below.
Further information on what a Heritage Champion does is given by Historic Environment Local Management (HELM), run by English Heritage.
