A short summary of funding opportunities that have came to our attention this week.
National Lottery Heritage Fund

From historic buildings, our industrial legacy and the natural environment, to collections, traditions, stories and more – heritage can be anything from the past that you value and want to pass on to future generations.


As part of its Heritage 2033 strategy, the National Lottery Heritage Fund has launched three strategic initiatives offering targeted funding to address long-standing heritage issues across the UK.



Historic England's History in the Making Programme

The History in the Making programme will enable underrepresented young people (aged 13 to 25) to research, discover and commemorate local histories. Each funded project will create a place marker to celebrate and share these stories with the community.


Current deadline: 2nd September 2024



Unrestricted Grants from The Fore [CLOSING SOON]

From midday on July 24, 2024, small organisations working with marginalised groups will be able to apply for unrestricted grants of up to £30,000 (over 1-3 years) for projects and activities that have the potential to transform their organisation.


The funding is made available by the charity "The Fore" to support charities that want to grow, strengthen, become more efficient, or resilient.
