Abstract

This paper is built around the proposition that the most important future direction for those working in heritage is to put much more emphasis on work that will better connect people to their heritage. It provides a tool box of actions to be considered as an integral part of the action plan for restoring your site. This work is equally as important as the traditional focus on researching the stories and stabilising the fabric. The tool box is based on these six core concepts: foundation, media profile, partnerships, wow visitor experience, celebration opportunities and measure benefits.
