Listed Places of Worship: Roof Repair Fund

This new money brings the total funding package made available to £55million.

The initial scheme is now closed but has been extended by a further £15m, bringing the total funding package to £30million, and allowing us to give awards to more applicants than originally anticipated. All these awards will be announced before the end of March 2015.

The Fund will then reopen to new applications later this year, making awards from the additional £25m allocation during 2016. Any applicants who were unsuccessful during the first round of awards will be required to reapply but the timetable will be more extended than that available for the 14-15 round.

The Fund is administered by the National Heritage Memorial Fund on behalf of the Department of Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS).

Information about the scheme will be available at the dedicated Listed Places of Worship: Roof Repair Fund website.
