THE CLEARY FUND: BUILDING RESTORATION GRANTS
Through
the F. E. Cleary Heritage Fund (commonly known as The Cleary Fund), The
Georgian Group gives small grants each year towards the repair and
restoration of Georgian buildings and monuments in the United Kingdom.
This adds a highly practical and positive dimension to the Group’s
conservation work; in many instances, even though the amount of money
given is small in absolute terms, the grant makes a major difference to
the viability of a restoration scheme. The intention is to pump-prime
schemes, prompt other sources to make grants and to fund specific
elements in larger schemes.
Around
five grants, averaging about £1500 each, are given annually. Grants are
usually made towards the conservation of buildings in public ownership
or to which there is public access, although they may occasionally be
given towards other projects such as the recording of threatened
buildings.
