Using the Heritage Fund with Rackline
Did you know you can use the Heritage Fund to upgrade museum storage?
The Heritage Fund has awarded nearly £2.3 billion to 5,600 museums across the UK. The funding aims to support small and large institutions including national and local authority museums. Funded by National Lottery players since 1994, the grant can be used to fund a range of projects that transform the UK’s culture and aid heritage organisations.
The fund is particularly useful for museums where space is limited and can be used to create new displays, store historic relics and create more space for new exhibitions.
At Rackline we specialise in bespoke storage solutions which are designed and manufactured in-house, specifically for use in museum environments. This ensures that special pieces such as artwork, costumes, archives and artefacts, are stored safely and meet the bespoke requirements of a museum.
How to apply for heritage funding
Ranging from £3,000 to £5 million, the National Lottery grant is available for projects of all sizes that aim to support the UK’s heritage.
To express interest in the grant for your organisation, applications are available to submit online. To find out more about the Heritage Fund visit heritagefund.org.uk.
