The Europa Nostra UK AGM was once again held online as a response to public health advice about COVID safety.

In early March 2020, the world went into lockdown. Like many other cultural heritage organisations, DigVentures realised the arc of the COVID-19 pandemic was a watershed moment for our organisational survival as well as the global future of the sector.
