The Big Lottery Energy Efficient Venues scheme is currently paying for community organisations to carry out works to their venue to make them more environmentally-friendly and energy-efficient.  As well as benefiting the environment, this programme will help community organisations save on their heating and lighting costs.

Grant sizes

Organisations can apply for two grant sizes through the programme. Grants of £2,000 - £10,000 and grants of £15,000 - £50,000 are available for groups to carry out improvements such as double glazing, upgrading insulation, or installing a more efficient heating system.

If the venue is already energy efficient, a grant could give organisations the opportunity to install solar panels, wind turbines, or biomass technologies such as wood pellet boilers.

The closing date for applications is 5pm on Friday 1 June 2012.
