Applications open for £1 million Shared History Fund

December 3, 2020

The National Lottery Heritage Fund is distributing £1 million, on behalf of the Northern Ireland Office, to organisations in the UK marking the centenary of Northern Ireland.

The Shared History Fund has been created as part of the UK Government’s commitment to facilitate local and national awareness of the centenary of Northern Ireland, which also paved the way for the formation of the UK as we know it today.

The fund also reflects the commitment to mark the centenary of Northern Ireland in line with the Principles for Remembering, as set out in the New Decade New Approach agreement in January 2020.

Grants will be awarded between £3,000 and £100,000 in two categories of £3,000-£10,000 and £10,000-£100,000. Funding must be spent by 31 March 2022 with the deadline for applications being the 15th of January 2021.
