Our grants
Welcome to our grants pages
We support a wide variety of projects through our grant programmes. From repairing a roof to helping to install an accessible toilet - and many other projects - our grants help keep churches open for worship and community activities and allow them to continue serve people in all sorts of ways.
We now offer three types of grant - Cornerstone, Gateway and Foundation Grants for Maintenance. Full details can be found by going to the individual grant programme pages shown at the bottom of this page, which include important information about deadline dates.
We also provide Preventative Maintenance Micro-Grants for churches towards the cost of building maintenance services.

Our ability to give grants depends on the income we receive, and the amount of money we have available each year varies. We rely on the generous help of our Friends and a number of trusts and foundations. We'd love to help even more churches with their projects, so do consider supporting us. You can join us as a Friend, make a donation, or consider us in your will.
Thank-you.
