Funding
Good news HLF will award £400m this
year to projects across the UK - more than twice as much as we expected
in 2008
Butchallenging economic
conditions andcontinued pressure on
public sector finances
What do we fund?
• Is there a heritage focus?
• Is it a project? – cannot fund core costs
• We give priority to not-for-profit organisations*
• Ownership requirements for land, objects or buildings
• Funding from £3,000 upwards!
Grant Programmes
