| Funding Description |
Through our Townscape Heritage Initiative (THI) programme, we make grants that help communities to regenerate Conservation Areas displaying particular social and economic need throughout the United Kingdom (except the Channel Islands and Isle of Man). THI encourages partnerships of local organisations to carry out repairs and other works to a number of historic buildings, structures or spaces within these defined areas. If your project focuses on a single historic building this is not the programme for you. Programme priorities To receive a grant your project must: help people to learn about their own and other people’s heritage Your project must also do either or both of the following: conserve the UK’s diverse heritage for present and future generations to experience and enjoy; help more people, and a wider range of people, to take an active part in and make decisions about heritage. We expect schemes to deliver the following outcomes: Preserving and enhancing the character and appearance of conservation areas affected by high levels of deprivation and in need of regeneration. Bringing historic buildings back into appropriate and sustainable use. Safeguarding the character of conservation areas through: increasing training opportunities in heritage skills increasing community participation; and improving approaches to conservation management and maintenance |
