Grants for community and heritage organisations in England for projects which improve understanding and awareness of overlooked historic places and celebrate working class histories.

Grants could be used to celebrate aspects of diverse heritage including:

• Local industry such as railways, mines and factories.
• The working-class history of coastal and rural towns.
• Local architecture.

Activities should provide innovative volunteering opportunities for young people or people facing loneliness or isolation, as well as contribute positively to participants’ wellbeing.

Grants up to £25,000. Smaller grassroots projects of less than £10,000 will be given priority for funding.

Deadline: 23 May 2022
