Asked by:
James McMurdock (Independent)

On the 22nd of January, I was pleased to announce that the Listed Places of Worship Grant Scheme would continue from March 2025 to March 2026 with a budget of £23m. Further details can be found here in the Written Statement.

The scheme has always had an upper limit and has always applied to all listed places of worship, regardless of denomination or faith, ever since it was established by the Labour Government in 2001.
