Sustainable Heritage Conservation
What our clients say
‘Sustainable Heritage have been advising on environmental systems and practices and producing reports for the National Trust for Scotland since 2010. We have always found the process of working with Wilma and her team straightforward, the information on the reports informative, understandable with recommendations that we can easily integrate into our working practices.'
Lesley Scott, Conservation Advisor Edinburgh & East, National Trust for Scotland
‘Wilma assisted National Museums Liverpool with the design process during RIBA stage 3 of the project to redevelop the International Slavery Museum and the Maritime Museum. Wilma’s contributions included commenting on design proposals by the project architects and engineers to enshrine best modern collections care into the design of the refurbished listed buildings. A particular emphasis was on sustainability of any modifications to the building and mechanical and electrical installations (economically sound, socially inclusive, and environmentally responsible). One important consideration was to reduce energy demand compared with the pre-refurbishment situation whilst at the same time ensuring collections in the buildings are appropriately cared for. Wilma was knowledgeable about environmental management of different types of collections, sustainable building management, project management and confident at communicating with various project consultants.
We would gladly work with her again during similar projects.’
Christian Baars, Head of Collections Care, National Museums Liverpool
‘It has been a pleasure working with you, and I want to express my gratitude for your professionalism and the positive impact you had on my understanding of the factors affecting the museum's environment.'
