In a challenging and constantly changing economic landscape, one where there is less public funding available, safeguarding our heritage is all about building resilience.

And through our new Resilient Heritage programme, organisations can now apply for grants up to £250,000 to undertake tailored activity to help them improve the way they manage their heritage. 

If an organisation wants to build its fundraising capacity or tap into new income streams, a Resilient Heritage grant can help them secure the skills and knowledge needed. Or if a new business operating model or new approach to governance and leadership would help put an organisation on a more resilient footing, then we can help there too. 

In fact, there are many ways in which Resilient Heritage grants can be used to help organisation secure our heritage. The programme is now open and more information about what we can fund and the application deadlines can be found on our Resilient Heritage page. 

Organisations can also find out how resiilent they currently are with our new online Resilient Heritage strength checker tool.
