Funding to Repair Protestant Churches in the UK

Churches of the Protestant tradition in the UK, but particularly those of the United Reformed and Congregational denominations, can apply now for grants of between £1,000 and £25,000 for capital works on church buildings costing less than £1 million. All grants are directly linked to the cost of the project involved.

Funding is normally for church capital projects involving building work, such as repairs, improvements or extensions.

Applications will also be considered from church community projects for funding towards capital costs (but not for ongoing work).

Grants cannot be awarded for the running costs of the church, organ and church bells restoration, manse works, graveyard maintenance, solar panels or other environmental projects which are not part of any other development work.

Applications are considered quarterly. The next meeting is scheduled for early December 2025.

The deadline for applications to this meeting is 24 October 2025 (10am).
