We want to support you to keep your church, chapel or meeting house open, well maintained and in use. On this page you’ll find links to resources and training to help you do this.
If you’re looking for support in Cumbria, Lancashire or Greater Manchester, please click here.
We have two dedicated Church Support Officers, who help places of worship with advice and guidance. You can email them at grants@nationalchurchestrust.org
As a Church Support Officer, Anna is the voice on the end of the phone, on hand to support your church with guidance and resources. You will also hear from Anna if you attend one of our training sessions, and if you submit an application for a grant, she will review it before it goes to the Grants Committee.
Heather will help your place of worship to find the advice it needs. Through online training or over the phone, Heather helps churches get to grips with grants, maintenance and fundraising, while she also reviews grant applications.
Whether you are looking to repair your roof, install a kitchen or accessible toilets, clear asbestos or simply need help undertaking regular essential maintenance to your building, we offer a range of grants to suit the size and needs of your project.
From how to develop and manage a church building project, to keeping your church in good condition by regular maintenance, you can find out about the key things you need to do to look after your church building.
Many churches, chapels and meeting houses were built to be at the heart of their communities; to be busy and used by all. There are many ways to ensure that this is still the case. Discover how to create the perfect welcome, tell your story and more.
32 more historic churches and meeting houses in England have been saved for the future thanks to a £3.6 million investment in the National Churches Trust's grant scheme by the Heritage Stimulus Fund.
'For Churches', our new strategy, is an ambitious plan setting out the ways in which we will support churches across the UK for the next three years.
Churches are the beating hearts of communities, providing vital support to local people. Hear from St Marylebone parish church in London, which is home to both a GP practice and a counselling service, about how hosting these services have helped their church and community to thrive.
