Challenge and Change: HLF and Cultural value
The work of HLF has broadened the social base for the enjoyment of heritage so that there is now an acknowledged diversity of contributions to the national story. This report offers a detailed history of the organisation to support this argument. In addition, the report addresses the issue of how public and cultural value are generated by and through the heritage and the work of HLF.
