Heritage Lottery Fund grants

This programme from the Heritage Lottery Fund offers grants of £50,000 or more. Projects should conserve and enhance the nation's diverse heritage, or encourage more people to be involved in their heritage, or both.
Projects should also make sure that everyone could learn about, have access to and enjoy their heritage. Heritage includes many different things from the past that are of value and need to be preserved for future generations. Heritage projects might include:
 People’s memories and experiences
 Histories of people, communities, places and events
 Cultural traditions
 Historic buildings and townscapes
 Archaeological sites
 Collections of items, archives or other materials
 Natural and designed landscapes
 Habitats and species
 Sites and collections links to our industrial, maritime and transport history.
 Applications can be made at any time for grant requests of up to £5 million. For applications where the grant request is £5 million and over there are application deadlines twice a year, at the end of December and the end of June.
