We live in a rich landscape of fine buildings, land, objects and artefacts. Essex Heritage Trust fund individuals or bodies who are preserving or restoring any aspect of our Essex Heritage. We hope to boost campaigns or provide part funds to leverage other financial support, and help ensure that valuable buildings, artefacts, objects or areas of great beauty are not spoilt or lost for ever.
The main project categories we fund are:
- Buildings, structures, monuments and maritime projects
- Church contents
- Historic and listed public buildings
- Museums
- Works of Art – purchase and restoration
- Publications, historical research and archaeology
