Heritage Places grant acknowledgement requirements

Heritage Places grant acknowledgement requirements

See all updates
These guidelines should be used by any project receiving a Heritage Places strategic initiative grant from The National Lottery Heritage Fund.

About Heritage Places

The National Lottery Heritage Fund is investing up to £200million in places across the UK to put heritage at the centre of local approaches that improve people's connection to where they live, work and visit.

Acknowledging your grant  

Grantees must not produce their own identity for a Heritage Places project. Our standard Heritage Fund Acknowledgement toolkit should be used. The toolkit outlines how acknowledgement should be applied to your project. As the primary funder we require a standalone position for the acknowledgement stamp on all materials and promotional activity associated with the project. Any other partners involved should have a secondary position.  

Read our acknowledgement toolkit

Links to our acknowledgement stamp can be found in the acknowledgement toolkit. Every project delivered in Wales must display the bilingual Welsh and English language acknowledgment stamp.
