The Suffolk Preservation Society promotes all that is special about our county’s heritage, and we need your support in championing our cause.
We recognise the benefits for communities and individuals that is gained from positive engagement with their surrounding environment. In Suffolk, we are fortunate to have an abundance of historic towns, villages, and protected landscapes.
We understand why our unique sense of place is important. We seek to celebrate our county, the people and crafts that sustain it, and how contemporary design and architecture can enhance the landscapes and buildings that make our county so special.
We are community-focused, inclusive, and optimistic for the future of our county. As an independent charity, your support is vital in enabling us to continue our work. Join us to find out more.
