Not an answer but I think there's an interesting related question regarding the number and relationship between sector support bodies for the cultural sector...

#HeritageDebate

💡Really interesting reflection from @heritagealliance.bsky.social corporate partner Ecclesiastical Insurance : local commercial partners can support not only with money but also with skills!

This is an innovative idea to help our sector resilience 💪

@heritagealliance.bsky.social #HeritageDebate 2025

Juggling mum life and listening to a really important discussion on Heritage and Local Government.

🗝️ Communities connections are key
🧑‍🤝‍🧑 Where are the allies in other sectors?

Apologies if there will be some radio silence on my page for the coming weeks as we wait for our new imminent arrival.

That feeling when you've finally achieved your last big milestone ⛰️(which has been in the pipeline for 2 years) before heading on maternity leave!

P.s. Ignoring the fact that I finished it on a Saturday 🥸

In an effort to distract me from struggling to breathe thanks to the latest lurgy 😷 with pregnancy side effects, I've decided to continue my journey in learning embroidery 🪡

The design for a Milton scholar and his bride is inspired by Milton's poems imagery.
#HeritageCrafts

I've delighted to introduce you to Guy who will take over my role at the Heritage Alliance as I head on Maternity leave.

Just prettier I'm afraid, salt is not a bad shout mind you!

It's #Eurovision night and for the first time in my life I think I've nailed my grandmother technique with the radishes!

I spent my childhood eating those!

Final theme of #HeritageCreates : inclusive partnerships.

Heritage and Creativity are great partners to help navigate complex and contested stories.

(Of course I'm biased but) a great presentation by @heritagelizzie.bsky.social and Neil Andrews.

@heritagealliance.bsky.social at #MandHShow

I loved this quote from @heritagelizzie.bsky.social "Modern Challenges require innovative solutions" which is why Innovative Partnerships are important ( #HeritageCreates Theme 4)

From tackling climate change to championing accessibility let's do it!

@heritagealliance.bsky.social at #MandHShow

#HeritageCreates theme 3 : Heritage as a creative practice

What about all the empowering skills and crafts which are critical for the film industry and are key to creativity & wellbeing.

Personally, I'm really enjoying learning embroidery lately 🪡

📖 #EvilStepMum diaries.

Celebrating #janeausten250 watching #Clueless with my youngest tonight.

🤔 At which point will the 1990s be considered #heritage material?

Mildly concerned as I remember well when the film came out...

April is #AdoptaGreyhound month.

I thought I would share some inspiration from the #WallaceCollection

If you are looking for a new family member that:
❤️ Requires little exercise
❤️ Requires little space
❤️ Can be a real diva
💜 Looks great in any oil painting

Look no further and adopt a #greyhound!

Joyeux anniversaire Tamsin 🎉

Just the teddy, but she is increasingly being a fiend at sleeping on our legs and her head is heavier than it looks!

💤 I am discovering that at 28 weeks #pregnant the midday naps which I thought I had left at the end of the 1st trimester are back being crucial 🙄😔 (my #greyhound approve their return!)

Currently blasting energising #FinalFantasy soundtrack 🎶 to get me through the end of the working day.

📢 An important announcement for the UK Heritage Sector.

At #HeritageDay2025 she highlighted her childhood memories anchored in Britain's heritage sites 🏰 and celebrated how heritage spurs creativity 🎉 for communities all around the UK.

Looking forward to hearing more from her in coming months.
