Overall aim

To raise awareness of the funding available to value, care for and sustain heritage in Scotland.

Description

Understanding and valuing our heritage is important for people and communities now and for future generations. This session will provide participants with a better understanding of the historic environment and provide some tools and resources which may be useful to develop ideas. The three main heritage funding organisations, Historic Environment Scotland, National Lottery Heritage Fund and the Architectural Heritage Fund will provide an overview of their priorities and funding programmes including examples of the types of projects that have been supported in the past. There will be an opportunity for questions to the panel of speakers at the end.
