Overview

The scheme aims to fund schemes that make a lasting difference for heritage, people and communities in the UK. A Landscape Partnership scheme is made up of a number of individual projects within a defined landscape character area. These individual projects should be integrated in a way that achieves a longterm legacy for the area.

Examples of what can be funded include projects involving -

natural heritage including habitats species and geology
surviving or lost historic features and buildings
archaeological sites, earthworks, features and deposits
cultural traditions such as stories,festivals, crafts, music, dance and costumes
histories of people and communities (including people who have migrated to the UK)
histories of places and events, and features created to commemorate them
traditional and local heritage skills and industries
the heritage of languages and dialects
semi-natural and designed landscapes and gardens
people’s memories and experiences (often recorded as ‘oral history’ or spoken history)
collections of objects, books or documents in museums, libraries or archives; and places and objects linked to our industrial, maritime and transport history.

Applicants and their partners are asked to make a contribution towards their scheme, i.e. ‘partnership funding’. This can be made up of cash, volunteer time, non-cash contributions, or a combination of all of these. For a grant request under £1 million, the partnership must contribute at least 5% of the costs of the development phase and 5% of the costs of the delivery phase. If the grant request is £1 million or more, the partnership must contribute at least 10% of the costs of the development phase and 10% of the costs of the delivery phase.
