say Heritage?

What about this?

What is a “project”?
We see a “project” as work or activity that: is not
part of the everyday work of your organisation and
has a time limit for when it should be carried out;
and has specific aims.
We give priority to applications from not-for-profit
organisations. This can include charitable or
voluntary groups, a Local Authority (including town
or parish councils), and schools etc.
We can fund capital work such as restoring an
old bus, refitting a museum display or conserving
an archive.
We can pay revenue costs, such as new staff to
help deliver a project.
We can pay for volunteer training and activities
and events that help the community to get
involved.
A project may typically last for three years but
could be anything from six months to five years.
Heritage Lottery has moved
away from ‘criteria’; instead,
we want applicants to focus
on the ‘outcomes’ of the
project.
The outcomes are the
difference you will make with
Lottery money.
To help applicants, we have
created a menu of 14
outcomes.

If my bid is unsuccessful, can I apply again?
Yes…
If I have received funding before from HLF,
can I apply again?
Yes! We won’t fund a project we have funded
before, and it may strengthen a new bid if you
can show ‘lessons learned’ from any previous
project.
If you are planning lots of bids to us… prioritise
your applications
Development areas
These are areas across the East of
England which may have had less
funding than others.
There is no ring-fenced money for these
