Many PCCs need to secure funding from external sources to enable them to undertake work on church buildings or the building’s contents. There are many organisations who make charitable grants to parishes in undertaking church maintenance, making adaptations to the building and/or the development of the building to enable community-focused projects to take place, but it can be confusing knowing where to turn for grants.
There is a Funding Directory which is available to all parishes in the Diocese. The Directory is divided into different sections broadly reflecting the different types of work for which funding may be required. The organisations included are those that are known to frequently give grants to churches and those which are known to have given grants to churches within the Diocese of Leicester. The Directory is updated annually.
If you would like to be sent an electronic copy of the Funding Directory for this year please contact:
