Grants of up to £6,000 are available to ecclesiastic and public buildings across the UK for the conservation of historic and/or artistically significant and publicly accessible stained and architectural glass. The Foundation also makes a small number of awards to individuals.
The Foundation has two principal objectives:
- The conservation of historic and/or artistically significant stained and architectural glass, and
- Promoting the craft by supporting the education and training of craftsmen and women in the fields of stained and painted glass, and by fostering public information and awareness.
Grants of up to £6,000, with no matched funding requirement, are available.
Custodians responsible for the care of large glazing schemes are encouraged to focus their applications on a specific outstanding window that is judged to be in most need of conservation. Applications for grant-funding for multiple windows are unlikely to be successful.
Potential applicants are strongly advised to contact the Foundation's Secretary before submitting an application, in order to receive preliminary guidance and support.
Further information, guidance and an application form, which must be submitted by email is available on the Foundation’s website.
