    Historic Environment Scotland's (HES) Partnership Fund is open to applications from third sector organisations delivering strategic outcomes with national impact for Scotland’s historic environment or the Scottish historic environment sector.

    You must have a track record of making a significant contribution to HES Grants Priorities and address a clear and demonstrable need or opportunity for Scotland’s historic environment sector which is not being met by other organisations.

    Examples of possible eligible activities include:

    • Professional or volunteer training programmes addressing recognised historic environment skills gaps at a national level
    • Developmental, advocacy or capacity-building activities enabling the sector to achieve strategic outcomes in line with national priorities
    • Outreach activities or learning programmes delivering high-impact outcomes for audiences across Scotland

    Partnership Fund grants can only cover direct activity costs and an appropriate level of indirect costs (full cost recovery) associated with the funded activities.

    Who can apply?

    Applicant organisations must be fully constituted with an organisational bank account and have a demonstrable track record of sound financial management, including administration of a similar level of grant funding.

    Applicants are likely to include charitable organisations playing an intermediary role or representing a specific area of activity within the sector.

    For full eligibility criteria, please see the HES website.

    How to apply

    Submit your Expression of Interest online via the Historic Environment Scotland website. If approved, you will be invited to complete a full application.

    The closing date for Expression of Interest is Friday 15 August 2025. The application deadline is Friday 12 September 2025.
