In November 2023, The National Lottery Heritage Fund named Medway as one of 9 places who will benefit from £200 million of investment as part of their ‘Heritage Places’ initiative. 

The Medway Heritage Place programme will use heritage to build pride in place, inspire local communities and power regeneration.

As part of the initial project phase, Medway Council will be supporting Medway’s heritage community to:

  1. shape a long-term shared ambition for heritage in Medway
  2. develop new ideas and approaches
  3. unearth new stories which deserve to be told. 

Grant funding of up to £15,000.00 is currently available for groups, organisations and individuals to pilot new ideas and approaches or learn new skills.
