  • Simon Jenkins Is Our New President
    12 news update Issue 2 | Dec 2011 | www.regencysociety.org The Regency Society of Brighton and Hove – registered charity no. 210194 Simon Jenkins is our new president The importance of the architectural heritage of Brighton and Hove has received a significant endorsement, with Sir Simon Jenkins – chairman of the National Trust – accepting the presidency of the Society. He takes up the position on 1 January 2012. “Brighton and Hove comprises the greatest monumental townscape in Britain,” he says. “It is precious and constantly in need of defenders.” Sir Simon, who says he is “delighted and honoured” by his new role, describes himself as “a sometime resident of Brighton” and replaces the Duke of Grafton, who died in April and was known in his younger days as the Duke of Preservation. He is an award-winning journalist and author, with regular columns in both the Guardian and the Evening Standard, who has previously edited both The Times and the Evening Standard. He has also been deputy chairman of English Heritage and a Millennium Commissioner. His books include England’s Thousand Best Churches, England’s Thousand Best Houses and this year’s A Short History of England. “Sir Simon is a perfect fit for the Regency Society,” says Society chair Mary McKean. “He is an active campaigner, a participant in lively debate on key issues in conservation and the built environment and a man who engages with current issues surrounding planning not as a Nimby but with a view to protecting all that is great about Britain.” Policy options for the city If you’re stumped for ideas for Christmas and know somebody with in an interest in Strategic issues facing Brighton and Hove were at the heart of the Regency’s Society’s comments to the city council in response to a consultation on four key architecture and local history, we have the areas of policy where significant changes are proposed.
