Good to join @atwjackson & @TomOleary72 & colleagues @nationaltrust @Buzz_dont_tweet @HistEnvForum @f_ben87 to hear about #Superbloom at @HRP_palaces @TowerOfLondon - a new park for London & an appropriate, ecologically friendly & beautiful moat for our times. More pics 👇

@TowerOfLondon

Loving the colour mixes & the sculptures. There’s also a slide & soundscape. @TowerOfLondon

One for #Frockingfabulous - the Queen’s garden for the #PlatinumJubilee was designed based on the Queen’s coronation dress. #Superbloom

Various seed mixes add patches of different colour & height. #Superbloom

Particularly loved the areas where small mounds added wave-like height & relief. #Superbloom

@f_ben87

A final visit also with the wonderful @f_ben87 who leaves @HistEnvForum this week - certainly a metaphor for the legacy she leaves with the team of a transformed new model forum. We will miss you Fran. #Superbloom @TowerOfLondon

Good morning from @Heritage_NGOs member @RIBA for @HOLTofLondon conference on #PublicArt - a full house as Director Dr Nicola Stacey introduces the theme of breaking the barrier between heritage & art.

Let the art breathe through time, communities engage & respond. Public art is bonding & inspiring but they are vulnerable.

Care & restoration. Imaginative reuse where this is needed. This should always be possible.

Good morning from Day 3 of the #LabourConference2024 - first up a dip into the monthly @HistEnvForum meeting & now I’m at the @BritishMusicExp with our member @UNESCOUK & colleagues @BritishCouncil for a session on how culture & heritage can support a sustainable future for all.

This is an event celebrating UN Sustainable Development Goals week with @2030hub.

Discussion about locally led solutions, relational infrastructure, reduction of siloed working between orgs, reconnecting communities with their own monuments when they have been alienated in some places. Need to connect individual to global. Hearing localised voices.

Good morning from Day two of #LabourConference2024 & we are joining a discussion about government-civil partnership around culture wars with @nationaltrust and @Moreincommon_

Some fascinating material about voter profiles & views on ‘culture war’ type issues. Voters see through it.

People are interested in the “and what?” question. Unlike America we don’t have stacked issues in certain profiles. In Britain we are more issue led, issue by issue.

Good morning from #LabourConference24& the @WeAreCreativeUK Pavillion. @RhonddaBryant kicks off the programme saying cultural education should be for all & all children, that human to human engagement is of great importance & Labour wants to fix the black hole in arts provision.
