The Memorial Grant Scheme is provided by the Department for Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) which has committed to delivering the scheme until March 2025.
The scheme is a VAT reclaim scheme which means the funding is intended to cover the costs of VAT already paid. The funding is intended to help with the cost of works like repairing and cleaning public memorials or installing a new memorial.
The memorial can commemorate a person/people, an animal/s or event/s. The funding can only be provided for works that have already taken place. It cannot be used for future works. Part-funding is available for ongoing work for parts of the work which have been completed.
£500 – £1,000. Registered Charities and Faith Groups.
Deadline – 31st December 2024.
