Historic Chapels Trust cares for some of England’s most significant non-Church of England places of worship no longer used by their congregations, offering expert advice on their care and conservation, providing funding for essential minor repairs and working with local committees to develop suitable new activities to engage their communities.
The next 12 months are a critical time for Historic Chapels Trust, as our funding from our long-term funder Historic England has reduced significantly before finishing in March 2022. On top of which, due to the cancellation of events and activities at our chapels over the last 14 months, we have experienced a decline in our income totalling £50,000. We are, at this moment, fighting for our survival.
Historic Chapels Trust is the place of last resort for these magnificent chapels and it is imperative that we continue our work so that we can care and protect these valuable strands of our history. Please donate to our Fighting Fund today.
