30 places of worship in England Wales and Scotland are set to benefit from grants totalling £546,000 from the National Churches Trust.??
The grants from the National Churches Trust – the only independent charity dedicated to supporting church buildings of all Christian denominations across the UK – will support projects including repairing ancient stonework and architectural features and the replacement of stolen lead roofing. They will also help pay for providing new facilities such as meeting rooms, kitchens and accessible toilets to enable greater community use.
The grants include £154,000 for listed places of worship outside the care of the Church of England from a one-off Capital Grant from the Department for Culture, Media and Sport, which is being administered on their behalf by the National Churches Trust.
