Our story began in 2010 when our co-founder Hannah Jones was working at a large engineering consultancy. Together with Toby Cambray who was finishing his MSc and contemplating his next move, the pair decided to radically re-think the way engineering solutions for buildings are delivered. Unlike the ‘big practices’, Hannah and Toby wanted a new model: an integrated approach where building physics, building services and building design come together for better outcomes. It worked. And, the rest, as they say is history.
We work in partnership with many of the word’s most respected architects. Where they have a vision for integrating high-levels of sustainability into their projects, we bring unrivalled technical expertise and a portfolio of best practise. We’re extremely proud to say that our contribution can help win awards, too.

History - The Getty Foundation (initially called the Getty Grant Program) was established in 1984 in the belief that philanthropy is a key ingredient in carrying out the mission of the J. Paul Getty Trust. The Getty Trust is an international cultural organization that includes the Getty Conservation Institute, Getty Foundation, Getty Research Institute, and J. Paul Getty Museum. Drawing on our unique position as a grant-making entity within the larger Getty Trust, we utilize the expertise of all the Getty programs as well as colleagues in our fields to identify areas where grants can make a difference.
Since our inception, the Foundation's signature grant programs have made art history more interdisciplinary and international; created models for the practice of conservation emphasizing the importance of planning and training; increased access to museum and archival collections, most recently in digital form; and nurtured a generation of new leaders in the visual arts. To date, the Foundation has developed, assessed, awarded, and monitored over 8,000 grants in more than 180 countries. You can browse the complete record in our online grant database.
For more than two decades, the Foundation practiced "over the transom" grantmaking according to defined program categories with regular submission deadlines. Then in 2008, partially in response to the economic downturn but also in accordance with shifting institutional priorities, we switched to strategic philanthropy and have since made our grants according to initiatives designed to address defined problems in art history, conservation, and museums. While economic conditions can affect our annual budget as was the case after 2008, the Foundation's grantmaking is guided primarily by the Getty's strategic priorities.
Getty has been the only major foundation that supports art history and conservation on a fully international basis. We have always defined the term "art" very broadly, to encompass all times, all places, and all media. And we believe in the importance of the quiet work that goes on behind-the-scenes but is absolutely necessary for public projects to succeed: research, conservation, and interpretation. These values have guided us well, and we look forward to sharing our continuing work.
- to save from destruction or disfigurement Georgian buildings, whether individually or as part of a group, monuments, parks and gardens of architectural and historic interest and, where necessary, encourage their appropriate repair or restoration and the protection and improvement of their setting.
- to stimulate public knowledge and appreciation of Georgian architecture and town planning; of Georgian taste as displayed in the applied arts design and craftsmanship, and its influence on later periods.
History
The Georgian Group is an English and Welsh conservation organisation created to campaign for the preservation of historic buildings and planned landscapes of the 18th and early 19th centuries. Founded in 1937 by the journalist Douglas Goldring, (who went on to become the first Honorary Secretary), Robert Byron (the Deputy Chairman) and Lord Derwent (the first Chairman) the Group was originally part of the Society for the Protection of Ancient Buildings.
The poet and author Sir John Betjeman, the architectural historian Sir John Summerson, the architectural writers James Lees-Milne and Christopher Hussey, the architect Albert Richardson, the 6th Earl of Rosse (active in the National Trust) and the urban planner Trystan Edwards were among its most prominent early active members. The Group caught the imagination of the younger generation of the day and both Nancy Mitford and Evelyn Waugh refer to the Group affectionately in their novels. An account of the Group’s early history can be found in Gavin Stamp’s article on the foundation of the Group in the 2012 Georgian Group Journal (Volume XX). Further articles on the history of the Georgian Group can be viewed here:
Charles Hind, ‘Sound and Fury – the Early Days of the Georgian Group’, The Georgian Group Report and Journal, 1986
David McKinstry, ‘The Continuous Present: The Georgian Group and Traditional Craftsmanship, 1937-2017’, Splendour!, 2017
Adam Busiakiewicz, ‘John Betjeman and the Georgian Group: The Early Years‘, The Georgian, 2018 (1)
Present Day - Since 1971, the Georgian Group has been a national amenity society. We act as a statutory consultee in the planning process in England and Wales, when consideration is being given to proposals to alter or demolish listed buildings dating, in whole or in part, from between 1700 and 1840.
We aim to protect historic buildings through providing advice to owners and architects, campaigning, and through our role as statutory consultees in the planning system. Our annual awards promote excellence in design and conservation. In its casework, the Georgian Group advises councils, church bodies, and others on threats to the historic fabric and setting of structures built between 1700 and 1837.
The Group organises lectures and other events aimed at improving the understanding of aspects of the eighteenth and early nineteenth century built heritage. We also produce technical advice leaflets, and promote the publication of academic research through our journal.
We have a small grants scheme for historic buildings, the Cleary Fund which is distributed annually in September.
Areas of Interest
- Listed Building applications for works of alteration and demolition for buildings of all kinds containing fabric and fittings which date from between 1700 and 1837.
- Applications for works significantly affecting the setting of buildings or structures constructed between 1700 and 1837 or those affecting the character of those parts of our historic environment with a primarily Georgian character.
- The care and preservation of Georgian buildings.
- Promoting good design in the setting of the Georgian built environment and Georgian parks and gardens.
- Promoting a better understanding of eighteenth and early nineteenth century architecture and designed landscapes.
