The Heritage Council’s Community Heritage Grant Scheme is now open for applications.
The Heritage Council is now accepting applications from voluntary or community groups and not for profit non-governmental organisations around the country for its Community Heritage Grant Scheme 2024.
A broad range of project types are eligible for funding under the scheme including:
- Conservation works to collections, objects or places, including natural heritage projects e.g. control of invasive species or habitat restoration works; conservation works to buildings, including churches; stabilisation works to ruined structures;
- Surveys, reports, plans, and audits to inform the future management of buildings and monuments, habitats, collections, or objects.
- Accessibility projects that make heritage activities more accessible for people with disabilities e.g. building ramps, automatic doors, handrails, tactile interpretation
- Projects that help people engage more with their heritage e.g. interactive maps, videos, virtual exhibitions, podcasts, websites
- Purchase of specialised equipment e.g archival boxing for vulnerable documents, monitoring equipment for humidity or light, interpretation/multimedia equipment, specialised software
- Projects that address the heritage of minority groups e.g an oral history project documenting Traveller heritage
- Training in traditional skills and crafts e.g. workshops on skills such as roofing, thatch, dry stone walling etc.
- Citizen science projects on environmental conservation
The minimum grant that can be requested through the scheme is €500. The maximum is €25,000.
