English Heritage launches new 'Angel' awards
English Heritage has announced the launch of a new awards scheme in a bid to celebrate the contribution of individuals towards the preservation and restoration of historic sites.
The English Heritage Angel Awards - "The Angels" - will comprise four annual prizes for the best examples of rescues and repairs to sites on the agency's Heritage At Risk register. Groups or individuals are eligible for nomination if they have either rescued or are currently working to preserve a site listed on the register since 2008 or meets the register's criteria.
A panel of judges chaired by Andrew Lloyd Webber and including Melvyn Bragg, Charles Moore of the Telegraph and English Heritage chief executive Dr Simon Thurley will choose four winners from a shortlist of 16 from around the country. Award winners will be announced at a ceremony hosted by Lloyd Webber at the Palace Theatre in London in the autumn.
