This grant program is administered by Heritage NSW under the NSW Department of Climate Change, Energy, the Environment and Water (the Department).
The 2025-27 Local Government Heritage Grants aim to support, promote and realise the values of locally significant heritage. This funding is for local councils who are best placed to understand their community and their connection to heritage.
The NSW Government is committed to supporting local councils to identify, conserve and promote heritage within their local government area.
This is a non-competitive funding round and eligible applicants can apply for a $25,000 (ex GST) grant for initiatives that help identify, conserve and promote places or objects that have significance to the local area and community.
Most local councils will need to provide matched funding.
Successful projects must be delivered between July 2025 and May 2027.
