Churches Conservation Travel Grant
Churches Conservation are pleased to confirm the fourth year of the foundation’s grant award scheme for young craftspeople with an interest in religious built heritage wanting to travel to increase their expertise and knowledge.
Up to two awards of between £500 and £1000 will be granted to young craftspeople showing the most innovative and enthusiastic approach to learning heritage skills, and with the clearest idea of how their own knowledge and future career in heritage will benefit from the award.
The grant can cover attendance at conferences or seminars, study tours and short-term internships. To be eligible, applicants must:
- Be under 30 years of age on April 1st 2020
- Be studying for a relevant craft or traditional building skill, or recently qualified in one
- Have a demonstrable and ongoing commitment to religious built heritage through a track record of relevant volunteering and/or study
- Be prepared to disseminate themselves what they learn through social media and also to provide photographs and a short report to the trustees, which may be published online and in any way by the foundation
Closing date Friday 24 January 2020
