Village Halls Grant Fund

Government grants to support the modernisation and improvement of village halls in England

We are pleased to be managing a grant fund on behalf of Defra to support the modernisation and improvement of rural community buildings.

A £3 million fund was announced by government in May 2022 to mark Her Late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II’s Platinum Jubilee.

In 2023, over £1 million was awarded to groups with ambitious projects, many of which were concerned with improving the energy efficiency of buildings.
