National Lottery Heritage Grants £10,000 to £250,000

National Lottery Heritage Grants is our funding programme for all types of heritage projects in the UK.

if you can answer yes to the following questions, then National Lottery Heritage Grants could be for you.

• Is your organisation looking to care for and sustain heritage in the UK?
• Will your heritage project run for no more than five years?
• Do you require a grant of between £10,000 and £250,000?
• Are you a not-for-profit organisation, a private owner of a heritage asset or a partnership?
• Does your project take into account our four investment principles?
  • saving heritage
  • protecting the environment
  • inclusion, access and participation
  • organisational sustainability

The fund is for projects that value, care for and sustain heritage for everyone across the UK, now and in the future.  

Heritage can mean different things to different people. It can be anything from the past that you value and want to pass on to future generations.

This could include nature and habitats, historic buildings and environments, or cultures, traditions and people’s memories. Explore a wide range of the types of heritage that your project could include.

They fund projects that:

• clearly focus on heritage – this can be national, regional or local heritage of the UK
• take into account all four investment principles
• have a clear plan with a defined start, middle and end
• have not already started
• can demonstrate the need for National Lottery investment
