Lancaster Civic Vision
The voice of Lancaster Civic Society and Lancaster Vision
For over fifty years, since its inception in 1967, the Lancaster Civic Society – now known as Lancaster Civic Vision – has overseen the preservation of the heritage of the Lancaster and Morecambe district, and its outstanding natural beauty, whilst assisting in its future development.

- To encourage high standards of architecture and town planning
- To stimulate public interest and care for the beauty, history, and character of the area

- To encourage and actively participate in the preservation, development, and improvement of features of general public amenity or historical interest
- to engage with, co-operate with, and assist any and all regulatory, statutory, corporate and other bodies in the economic development and regeneration of the area

- To pursue these ends by means of meetings, exhibitions, lectures, publications, and other forms of instruction and publicity, and promotion of schemes of a charitable nature
