The pre-draft for the Fingal Heritage Plan 2024-2030 has commenced.
The Fingal Heritage Forum, facilitated by the Heritage Office and Fingal County Council (FCC) begun the process of preparing a new Heritage Plan for Fingal and would like to hear your views on what priorities or actions should be included in the new plan. A spokesperson for FCC stated: “Our heritage is what we have inherited from the past, to value and enjoy in the present, and to preserve and pass on to future generations”.
“It comprises: the tangible – our historical sites, buildings, monuments, historic demesnes, artefacts and archives; the natural – our seascapes, waterways, landscapes, geology, flora and fauna; and the intangible – including our customs, sports, folklore, crafts, skills, and traditions. “The Fingal Heritage Plan looks at all types of heritage and how they interlink and connect and how we can best protect and access our heritage. The Plan sets out a vision and strategic objectives for our shared heritage. Sharing and celebrating our heritage in all its diversity promotes well-being and adds to a sense of belonging. Heritage in part of who we are. So have your say!”
So, FCC wants to know the aspects of Fingal’s heritage that you value and want to see protected and celebrated. Information gathered during the pre-draft consultation process will contribute to the development of a new Heritage Plan for Fingal up to 2030.
“We are seeking your input in setting the priorities for Fingal’s Heritage Plan by completing the survey which can be found here below on or before Friday, May 19 next.
