Why Heritage?

• Sense of place – understanding local situation, needs

and influences

• Shared heritage assists community cohesion
• Investigating heritage can facilitate education and

participation

• Engaging wider public with their heritage fosters pride

through self-display

environment

Outcomes – for heritage, for people, for society

• We describe the differences that we want to make to

heritage, people and communities as ‘outcomes.’

• Your project does not need to contribute towards all of
• them. Many different combinations of outcomes can make

a successful application.

• We will consider the quality of the outcomes that your

project will achieve, which means that contributing towards more will not necessarily make your application stronger.

• ’
• What difference will your project make for heritage?

What difference will your project make for people? This could include:

• Projects which encourage people

to be trained in new skills

• Projects which have created

volunteering opportunities

• Projects which set up a new

Friends group

• Projects which provide

information to help people learn about the heritage

• Projects which give people an

enjoyable experience

What difference will your project make for communities? This could include:

• Projects which have created

activities for new and existing audiences

• Projects which make your local

area a better place to live, work

• r visit

When assessing your application, we will consider the following:

• What is the heritage focus of the project?
• What is the need or opportunity that the project is

responding to?

• Why does the project need to go ahead now and why is

Lottery funding needed?

• What outcomes will the project achieve?
• Does the project offer value for money?
• Is the project well planned and financially realistic?
• Will the outcomes be sustained after the project has

ended?
