Sacred Britain New Horizons

The Churches Tourism Association 2008 Convention: 24th -26th November 2008

The Hayes, Swanwick, Derbyshire.



The Churches Tourism Association returns to The Hayes Conference Centre in Derbyshire for the 2008 Convention.

This year's program will explore key themes under the overall banner of SACRED BRITAIN - NEW HORIZONS:

  • Pilgrimage.  International - Let's be inspired  to think what we can create today.  And find out what's happening elsewhere.
  • Multifaith collaboration - Let's hear from projects that are opening up their buildings to wider audiences.  Let's hear from leading figures on how best to get together to inform the public about our great heritage of sacred buildings of all faiths.
  • Celebrating places of worship and welcome visitors - How to 'show-off" your building to visitors:  its history, its stories, its specialness, training in best practice and finding out whats available.

Come along and enjoy keynote speakers like Sir Roy Strong on the future of the country church.

*  You'll be offered a chice of practical workshops.

*  You'll meet like-minded freinds                                  
*  You'll get fresh ideas from people who have already blazed a trail and made their place of worship a "must see" experience for visitors

*  You'll learn more about free entries on national websites, the ASPIR project, and local initatives to make faith buildings more accesable.

Booking opens 1st May 2008
