We are pleased to announce that ContinYou’s patron Baroness Kay Andrews has been appointed as the new Chair of English Heritage.

Baroness Andrews was formerly Parliamentary Under Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government. Her appointment to English Heritage will run for four years from 27 July 2009.

Baroness Andrews, as quoted on dash.com, said: %22I am delighted to be appointed the new Chair of English Heritage. I am conscious that I do so following last year's tragic death of Sandy Bruce-Lockhart. He was a great man and a wonderful champion of England's heritage. It will be the greatest privilege for me to take up the baton and be directly involved in the protection and promotion of the historic environment all around us and under our feet.”

%22I believe very strongly that inspiring and opening doors for children to enjoy and care for our historic places is one of the most important things English Heritage can do and I look forward to working with everyone there to ensure we achieve this%22.
