What We Do
In Spring 2025, the Department for Culture, Media & Sport (DCMS) announced the Heritage Revival Fund (HRF), committing £5.16 million to support community-led reuse and conservation of historic buildings across England. Delivered by the Architectural Heritage Fund (AHF) in partnership with DCMS and Historic England, HRF builds on the success and learning of the Transforming Places through Heritage (TPtH) programme — but places a stronger focus on supporting community ownership, inclusive local regeneration, and the reuse of historic buildings located in high streets and town centres.
The AHF is commissioning an evaluation consultant to design and deliver a Monitoring and Evaluation Plan that reflects the HRF’s objectives and builds on its broader evaluation strategy. The consultant will be responsible for conducting the evaluation, including assessing socio-economic benefits and producing a final report. The evaluation should primarily draw upon the TPtH evaluation methodology, particularly with regard to economic modelling such as value for money, benefit-cost ratio, and net present value.
The deadline for tenders is Friday 10th October 2025.
