Main grants scheme for village halls
Grants up to £75,000 to support larger improvement projects to rural community buildings in England such as full refits and extensions
Please note, we are not accepting Platinum Jubilee Village Halls Fund applications at this time. Please continue to check our website for updates on when new funding may become available.
Our main grants scheme was first announced in 2022 in celebration of the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee.
This scheme was for those responsible for rural community buildings who wish to make substantive improvements to their building, whether that be extensions or improving energy efficiency and contributing to Net Zero.
Awards could be made to cover 20% of eligible project costs, up to a maximum amount of £75,000. The balance of funding for the works proposed had to be in place, or at least confirmed within 6 months of receiving a grant offer.
