The Boiler Replacement Hardship Grant Fund is provided and administered by the Church of England.

The fund is from the Church of England’s NetZero by 2030 programme, which aims to equip, resource, and support all parts of the church to tackle climate change by reducing carbon emissions from the energy used in its buildings, schools, and work-related transport.

Objectives of Fund

This fund aims to support churches/church halls with limited budgets with the costs of replacing a gas boiler with an alternative low carbon heating system.

Value Notes

Grants of up to £45,000 are available.

The level of grant available for each church will vary according to the indices of multiple deprivation by ecclesiastical parish.

Who Can Apply

Churches in all dioceses (excluding the Channel Islands) can apply.

To apply, churches must meet the following criteria:

• Churches and church halls where activities are taking place in a building owned by part of the Church of England.
• The church/church hall’s existing oil or gas boiler is at the end of its life or has failed.
