Archaeological sites and monuments.

Collections of objects, books or documents in museums, libraries or archives.

Historic buildings.

Cultural traditions such as stories, festivals, crafts, music, dance and costumes.

Histories of people, communities, places and events.

The heritage of languages and dialects;

People’s memories and experiences (often recorded as ‘oral history’).

What is the deadline for Expressions of interest?

There is no deadline for Expressions of Interest for small grants. You can submit anytime, and we will aim to respond within 10 working days. The first small grant application deadline is fixed at 31 October, so the sooner you

submit your Expression of Interest, if it is accepted, you will have longer to complete a full application.

Decisions on small grants applications are taken on a quarterly basis. Any Expressions of Interest received after the application deadline date of 31st October will be allocated to the next quarterly decision meeting.
