About us

The Trust is dedicated to promoting and supporting church buildings of historic, architectural and community value across the UK.

About Us

The National Churches Trust is the only national, independent, non-profit organisation dedicated to promoting and supporting church buildings of historic, architectural and community value across the UK.

 

We promote the use of church buildings by congregations and the wider community not just as places of worship but as venues for social, cultural and educational activities, and as centres of local history and architecture for visitors and tourists. We advocate the conservation of places of worship of historic value for the use and enjoyment of future generations.

 

Learn more about the Trust and its history, its people and partners, some key facts, find answers to common queries and how to get in touch.
