Geoffrey Blake Architectural Heritage Fund
The Geoffrey Blake Architectural Heritage Fund provides grants to volunteer-led and charitable groups for community-based projects of architectural merit in Cumbria that enhance people's experience and understanding of the built environment. The fund was created by a private individual in memory of her father, who had a long-standing interest in historical architecture. Projects must have full public access and demonstrate clear community benefit. Supported projects include renovation of community features and landmarks such as watering holes, crosses and memorials; renovation of features of public buildings with particular architectural merit; creation of new work including sculptures and other built features; and reconstruction of historically significant bridleways. The fund does not support individuals or major building renovations. Grants typically range from £500 to £1,000, though there is no maximum award amount.
