What are the maximum amounts available.
For either a minor repair or an improvement, grants will be awarded for projects costing up to £8,000 (or £10,000 if the VAT is not eligible under the Listed Places of Worship grant scheme).
You could potentially receive up to 90% of your project costs, and in exceptional circumstances, a funding rate of 100% may be considered.
A link to the simple online application form is only available after a conversation with Gareth Greenwood, the Church Building Support Officer.
The level of grant awarded will be aimed at assisting those parishes in the greatest need, therefore PCCs with unrestricted reserves equating to more than 12 months parish expenditure are unlikely to be successful.
If the value of applications is greater than the funds available, the panel will use agreed weighting criteria to prioritise awards.
