We are delighted to announce that Icon Cymru have officially lauched as a Group, following their ratification at the most recent Icon Board meeting in March, created to represent conservators and conservation practice in Wales.
Icon Cymru aims to provide conservators working in and around Wales with a network of supportive colleagues, to bring interesting, relevant training events to its members, and listen to feedback about the development opportunities that you want to see. The Group aims to be a voice for Welsh conservators, and conservation more widely, engaging with partner organisations, educational bodies and the Welsh Government.

Join the Icon Cymru Open Meeting | Icon Cymru: Cyfarfod Agored
To celebrate their launch, Icon Cymru is holding a free, online Open Meeting on Thursday 22nd May 2025 3pm-4.30pm!
The informal session will provides you with a chance to meet the new committee, learn about the group’s aims, and help shape what comes next. Whether you're curious about how to get involved, full of ideas for future events and activities, or simply want to connect with others working in the conservation sector in Wales, we’d love to see you there.
This first open event will help Icon Cymru plan a future that reflects the interests and priorities of the conservation community in Wales. Everyone is welcome – come along, share your thoughts, and be part of this exciting new beginning!
