Archives Revealed is a partnership programme between The National Archives, the Pilgrim Trust, the Wolfson Foundation and The National Lottery Heritage Fund which helps unlock collections across the UK and build the skills needed to care for them into the future.
The Archives Revealed Scoping Grant panel met in April 2025. They made 10 awards of £3,000 totalling £30,000.
The Scoping Grants programme funds an independent consultant to produce an expert collections report (or scoping report) on a full or partial archival collection, for which the contents are unknown in detail, but which is significant and of interest to the public.
The 10 awards for this round of funding went to the following organisations:
- Romney, Hythe & Dymchurch Railway Supporters Association
- Oldham Local Studies and Archives
- Prospect Community Housing
- Westmorland and Furness Council
- SIN Cru
- Falls Community Council
- The Kent Police Museum
- Light Music Society
- Derry City and Strabane District Council Tower Museum
- Ouseburn Trust
Further details about all of these projects can be found here on the Archives Revealed site. Applications for Scoping Grants are open four times a year. Application dates can be found here
