The National Churches Trust is the charity for people who love church buildings. Our work is dedicated to supporting churches, chapels and meeting houses open for regular worship and of historic, architectural and community value throughout the UK.
We do this by providing grants for urgent repairs and community facilities, helping places of worship keep their buildings in good condition and making it easy for everyone to discover the wonder of the UK’s sacred heritage.
In the last ten years we have awarded over 1,500 grants totalling £14 million. We are experts in what we do, and churches know to turn to us for support…..
“We are thrilled to partner with so many churches to enable them to carry out urgent repairs and make their buildings fit for the 21st century,’ shares Claire Walker, Chief Executive of the National Churches Trust.
“From installing kitchens and accessible toilets to making their buildings windproof and watertight, our grants help to keep churches in good condition and serving local people.”
