There is often a close relationship between Tourism and Heritage. Heritage is all encompassing and extends to both the natural and cultural environment. Our definition of heritage and the way we manage it, in turn reflects our wider values as a society. Our special landscapes, listed buildings and townscapes, the relationship between these and the people who live there, their stories and how they are expressed are often central to the visitor offer. Tourism, on the other hand, is the largest industry in the world and can often provide the economic rationale for Heritage Management.

Colin Buchanan offers a range of expertise within Heritage Management:

    * World Heritage Site management
    * Protected area management
    * Conservation areas: character appraisal and design guidance
    * Rural design guidelines
    * Historic estates: business planning, development and interpretation

Within tourism we also offer expertise in:

    * Market research
    * Strategic policy development
    * Destination development
    * Visitor management
    * Tourism business development planning
    * Programme and project evaluation and monitoring
    * Supporting statements in relation to planning applications

We have experience in policy development, programme and project development, activity tourism and sustainable development. In addition to our core in-house expertise, we work with a range of associates who provide specialist expertise as part of a bespoke solution for each individual client.
