Landscape Partnerships (LP) is our grant programme to support schemes of between £250,000 and £2million led by partnerships of local, regional and national interests which aim to conserve areas of distinctive landscape character throughout the United Kingdom.  Each scheme is based round a portfolio of smaller projects, which together provide a varied package of benefits to an area, its communities and visitors.

Landscape Partnership schemes must deliver equally across all of the following programme outcomes:

• Conserving or restoring the built and natural features that create the historic landscape character.
• Increasing community participation in local heritage.
• Increasing access to and learning about the landscape area and its heritage.
• Increasing training opportunities in local heritage skills.

  Please note: The national batch deadline for 2008 first-round applications has now passed. Applications for the second batch of Landscape Partnerships applications should be received by 30 November 2009, for a decision in April 2010.
