Building grants and loans are available to assist in funding the costs of non-routine maintenance, development and acquisition of church properties. Funding is also available to assist in improving the energy efficiency and reducing the carbon footprint of church buildings. Further details regarding the operation of the Building Grants Fund, the Building Loans Fund and the Rectory Green Fund can be found in the Guidance Notes which should be read prior to submitting an application. All applications for provincial building grants and loans must be subject to Diocesan review and must also be reviewed by a member of the Provincial Net Zero Team prior to submission.
There are different application forms for work to church buildings and work to rectories. Both forms are available in two formats – a Word fillable form and PDF fillable form.
