Architectural Heritage Fund – Grants for the conservation and regeneration of historic buildings (notice of forthcoming deadline: Wednesday 10 August 2011)
The Architectural Heritage Fund (AHF) is a registered charity that promotes the conservation and regeneration of historic buildings in the UK.
Funding is available to voluntary organisations and building preservation trusts to regenerate historic buildings to create community and education facilities, workspace and homes.
To be eligible to apply for funding through the AHF, organisations need to be a registered charity and the building(s) must be listed, scheduled as an ancient monument or in a Conservation Area (if in a Conservation Area, it must be of acknowledged historic or architectural importance).
The project must also involve a change of ownership and/or a change of use.
Previously funded projects include turning run down historic buildings into:
- community theatres,
- resource centres,
- community learning centres,
- workspaces,
- places to live; and
- community meeting places.
The next closing date for applications is the 10th August 2011.
