Since 1994 we have awarded £3.6bn of National Lottery and other funding to 16,300 projects in London and South.

From the bustling streets of the UK's historic capital to the idyllic coves of Cornwall and the cultural history of Kent, London & South is rich in heritage.

We’re proud to play a role in protecting and celebrating the region's vibrant cities, beautiful landscapes, historic sites and diverse cultures. It’s part of our vision for heritage to be valued, cared for and sustained for everyone, now and in the future.
