Who is the workshop for?

The National Lottery Heritage Fund accepts applications from not-for-profit organisations, private owners of a heritage asset and partnerships. Here are some examples of the types of organisations which can be funded:

  • charities, trusts and charitable incorporated organisations
  • community and voluntary groups
  • community/parish councils
  • community interest companies
  • faith-based or church organisations
  • local authorities
  • other public sector organisations
  • private owners of a heritage asset, for example a building, land, object or collection

Organisations need to have a bank account, a governing document, and two or more members that are not related or living at the same address."
