The historic environment and Big Society -- The historic environment in 2011: an overview -- Indicators section
Summary: Heritage Counts is an annual publication and this year it outlines the role of the historic environment in developing and shaping our communities. It highlights how private individuals and the independent, voluntary and community sector are working with public sector organisations to help ensure our communities look after, learn from and are inspired by our heritage. This report looks at how the historic environment contributes to the following government objectives: social action encouraging and enabling people to play a more active part in society; community empowerment giving local councils and neighbourhoods more power to take decisions and shape their local area; opening up public services, voluntary sector and local groups delivering public services and managing community and public assets. The report draws on new research from The Heritage Alliance and Civic Voice to look at the role of independent heritage organisations, civic societies and volunteers in civil society.
