'Culture is termed both as a) the 'implied cultivation and a sence of growth' with its suggestion of '... a degree of sophistication and refinement' (Pounds, 1994, p.1) and b) the organisational [corporate] culture within cultural heritage organisations (Schein, 1985, pp 1-9).

Heritage encompasses everything that surrounds us; an unfolding story of function and beauty. It takes a time-affected physical form, built and natural, embelished with an intangible body of cultural traditions (UNESCO 2020). Its significance depends on our understanding of our environment and of our past, is influenced by the levels of available information, the view point of the communicator and the human needs (Beck and Wallendorf, 1994; Black, 2005).

Cultural heritage, based on the above descriptions, is the incubator for inspiring engagement through our inherited, present and future world, and of custodian attitudes towards it.'
