Registered Charity No: 1113753 (England & Wales), SCO39244 (Scotland).
The Society for the Protection of Ancient Buildings (SPAB) helps shape a sustainable future for our architectural heritage.
Founded in 1877 by William Morris, SPAB is the UK’s oldest conservation charity; this year celebrating our 150th anniversary. We represent the practical and positive side of conservation through our unique combination of training, research, advice and repair. We celebrate old buildings and encourage building professionals and homeowners to keep them useful, beautiful and part of the lives of communities across the UK and Ireland. We encourage sustainability, and excellence in new design to enrich and complement the built historic environment.
A legacy or gift in your will help us train new generations of craftspeople and architectural professionals to work with heritage buildings with sensitivity and skill. A legacy gift will help us actively protect historic buildings at risk and carry out cutting edge research into sustainability solutions for old buildings.
Thanks to legacy and gifts in wills SPAB has spent 150 years ensuring old buildings are understood, cared for and appreciated today, and protected for tomorrow. With a gift in your will, we hope to protect our heritage for the next 150 years.
