About This Opportunity

The Heritage Protection Commissions and Capacity Building Scheme was re-launched on 4th November 2025 as People and Research. It continues to provide funding for strategic research and to build skills and capacity in the historic environment. Historic England wants to work with others to develop a strategic understanding of our shared historic environment, to develop innovative ways to protect it from harm and to enrich skills and expertise to help care for it. The program focuses on activities and projects that strengthen the ability of the sector to research, reduce or avoid risk to the historic environment by improving understanding, managing and conserving heritage assets.
