Historic England – Regional Capacity Building Programme

Historic England provides financial assistance to VCSE organisations, who are dedicated to advancing the sustainable management and development of the historical environment. This funding is allocated to projects with a regional or local emphasis within England.

This programme has three specific targets for support. Activities and projects must help to reduce or avoid risk to the historic environment through at least one of the following:

  • Projects which build up the capacity and commitment of local communities to champion the conservation and enhancement of their own local historic environments
  • Projects which promote best-practice standards and skills for the conservation, documentation, interpretation and sustainable management of the resources of England’s historic environment
  • Projects directed towards meeting regional-based information needs.
