Funding to Repair & Improve Christian Buildings (UK & Ireland)

The Benefact Trust has launched a new funding programme to protect and enhance Christian buildings, ensuring their continued use and viability, and the safeguarding of their heritage.

The Building Improvement Grants programme is open to applications from churches, cathedrals, denominational bodies, and Christian charities in the UK and Ireland, and will support capital costs such as essential repairs, improvements, equipment purchases, conservation and restoration, aesthetic enhancements, and energy efficiency measures.

There is no minimum or maximum award specified, but applicants will need to secure at least 30% of their total project costs before making an application. Funding will be awarded at the discretion of the trustees and applications can be made at any time.
