Grant money is now available to York organisations who want to celebrate the city’s heritage.
York Trailblazers has £30,000 to give to charities and community groups.
Trailblazers is a city-wide programme of events and activities across 2023 to 2025 celebrating York’s heritage, supported by the National Lottery Heritage Fund.
In a collaboration between York Civic Trust and Make It York, with funding made available through the National Heritage Lottery Fund, organisations are being invited to apply to grants up to £3,000.
Grants are available for projects, events or initiatives that
celebrate York’s history and heritage, uncover lesser-known heritage stories of York, enable community activity to reduce resident isolation and support wellbeing, and which work with people affected by isolation/loneliness, people from lower socioeconomic backgrounds, minority and protected groups.
Applications open today (Monday 17 July) and close at 12pm on Friday 11 August. The grants are available for projects running anytime between September 2023 and 27 September 2024.
The grant information, criteria for applications and the application form are available on the Make It York website here.
