Listed Places of Worship Grant Scheme

Funding is still available through the Listed Places of Worship Grant Scheme for the 2025/26 financial year.  The scheme provides funding to support the restoration of thousands of listed places of worship,  including churches, synagogues, mosques and temples. This scheme offers grants of up to £25,000 towards the VAT paid on repairs and renovations to listed religious buildings, including churches, synagogues, mosques, and temples. The scheme will help fund works such as repairs to foundations, masonry, and monuments integral to these historical buildings. To date, nearly £350 million has been awarded under this scheme, supporting various listed religious buildings throughout the UK. The 2025/26 Scheme will close on 31 March 2026, or once the £23m budget has been reached, whichever is earlier.
