The application process for the latest rounds of the Marshall Beresford and Church Fabric Funds is now open. The closing date is October 1.
The Marshal Beresford Fund and Church Fabric Fund are held towards the building or repair of churches or chapels. The grants from the Marshal Beresford Fund and the Church Fabric Fund are allocated half–yearly in April and November.
If a parish is awarded a grant, it will be allocated from either the Marshal Beresford Fund or the Church Fabric Fund and not from both funds.
Grants are usually not allocated towards a project until the half–year after the proposed completion date for the works relevant to the grant application.
Application forms are available from: Mr Ian Walshe, Property Department, Representative Church Body, Church of Ireland House, Church Avenue, Rathmines, Dublin 6, D06 CF67. (Tel: 01–4125 619; Email: ian.walshe@rcbdub.org)
