The Glaziers Trust: Conservation Grants
Overview
Grants are available to ecclesiastic and other public buildings exclusively for the conservation of historic and/or artistically significant stained and architectural glass. The Grants are made by The Glaziers Trust, part of the Company’s charitable foundation, which has two principal objectives:
- The conservation of historic and/or artistically significant stained and architectural glass.
- Promoting the craft by supporting the education and training of craftsmen and women in the fields of stained and painted glass, and by fostering public information
They usually dispense grants of between £500 and £4,000. Custodians responsible for the care of large glazing schemes are encouraged to focus their applications on a specific outstanding window that is judged to be in most need of conservation. Applications for grant-funding for multiple windows are unlikely to be successful. They do not fund the restoration of plain glazing. They also do not support work that has already begun, or that has been completed. Conditions of the grant can be found here.
