Put Heritage Funding Where It Can Make a Difference

Publish grants and funding opportunities for historic buildings, conservation projects, traditional skills and community heritage — and connect your support with the people and places that can put it to work.

Good Funding Can Change the Future of a Historic Place

Grants do more than meet costs. Well-directed funding can enable urgent repairs, building rescue, community ownership, traditional skills, sensitive reuse and the long-term stewardship of historic places.

ConserveConnect helps charities, trusts, foundations, public bodies, grant-making organisations and other responsible funders make their support easier to discover by the people and projects working to conserve the historic environment.

By listing a funding opportunity, you can present what you fund, who is eligible, where support is available, how much may be awarded and when applications need to be made — helping appropriate projects understand whether your programme may be right for them before they apply.

Our aim is not simply to promote grants. It is to help connect responsible funding with credible conservation needs, reducing the distance between organisations able to provide support and the building owners, community groups, heritage organisations and practitioners capable of putting it to constructive use.

Funding has the greatest value when it helps good conservation happen. ConserveConnect is designed to make relevant opportunities clearer, more accessible and easier to connect with projects seeking responsible and lasting outcomes.

WHO CAN LIST FUNDING?

Funding Providers of Many Kinds Are Welcome

ConserveConnect welcomes genuine funding opportunities that can support conservation, historic buildings, traditional skills and community heritage.

Trusts & Foundations

Charitable trusts, foundations and established grant-making bodies supporting heritage, conservation and community projects.

Local authorities, public agencies and heritage organisations administering grants or financial support programmes.

Organisations & Businesses

Charities, institutions and responsible businesses offering structured funding relevant to the historic environment.

Listings must describe a genuine funding opportunity. The provider, purpose, eligibility, application process and any material conditions should be stated clearly and accurately.

Manage My Listing
Clear information helps the right projects apply. Funding listings should identify the provider, purpose, eligibility, application process and any material conditions as accurately as possible.

CLEAR • ACCURATE • ACCESSIBLE

What Makes a Useful Funding Listing?

Applicants should be able to understand quickly what your funding supports, whether they may be eligible and what they need to do next.

A Clear Funding Purpose

Explain what the programme is intended to support — from building repair and conservation to skills, community heritage or sustainable reuse.

Who Can Apply

State clearly who is eligible, where funding is available and any important restrictions relating to organisation type, ownership or project location.

Funding & Deadlines

Give realistic grant values or funding ranges, application deadlines and any match-funding or other material financial requirements.

A Clear Route to Apply

Provide current guidance, application links and contact details so suitable applicants can move directly from discovery to the funder’s own process.

Clarity saves time on both sides. Accurate eligibility, funding and application information helps suitable projects come forward while reducing enquiries and applications that fall outside a programme’s purpose.
