Overview
They want to boost pride in place and connection to heritage across whole places rather than individual projects. Their aim is to make heritage integral to plans and approaches that are making local areas better places to live, work and visit.
In October 2023 they announced the first nine of up to 20 places across the UK where they’ll invest £200million:
- Armagh City, Banbridge and Craigavon
- County Durham
- Glasgow
- Leicester
- Medway
- Neath Port Talbot
- North-East Lincolnshire
- Stoke-on-Trent
- Torbay
Considerations for a Heritage Place application:
- core project activities must be located in one of our heritage places
- projects should be part of a wider ambition to improve or transform the area, supported by local partners and organisations
- projects should be collaborative and will need to demonstrate evidence of support from local partner(s)
