The King approved the re-appointment of Ms Tanvir Zehra Hasan as a Member of the Churches Conservation Trust for a second term until 31 January 2031, according to a government press release published on 27 October 2026.
Hasan chairs the trust's Conservation Committee and is an accredited conservation architect specialising in listed buildings within Conservation Areas. The release said she advises the Board on maintaining 358 churches and on new Church of England vestings, drawing on heritage experience to adapt historic spaces for community use.
Internationally, she consults for the World Monuments Fund in Iraq on post-conflict restoration, including sites at Amedi, Erbil Citadel and the Mosul Museum. The release said her work helps reconcile divided communities and builds local capacity through training in conservation and traditional crafts such as stonemasonry and timber joinery.
