Welcome to the National churches trust

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 have launched the report of our major National Survey, looking at how the UK's church buildings are maintained, funded, managed and used by their communities. Thousands of churches participated in the exercise, which establishes new and up-to-date facts about the state of the country's places of worship.
