Heritage and Culture Grant Scheme

 This project is providing grants to assist schemes that allow communities and community groups to celebrate, conserve and protect their own heritage, be it cultural or natural. 

The grant scheme  builds on the success of the Northern Marches Cymru’s -Community Heritage Project under Business Plan 1,  where communities joined together to research and develop the history and culture of their areas. The successful capacity building developed through that project has encouraged groups to apply for Heritage & Culture Grant funds to manage their own identified projects.

NEW for June 2013 – July 2014

Northern Marches Cymru will shortly be announcing our new Heritage & Culture Grant-Year 2 priority themes for funding.
