<p>The Listed Places of Worship Grant Scheme was established to reimburse the VAT
paid on repairs and maintenance to the nation's listed places of worship. The grant
scheme has been managed by multiple administrators on behalf of the Department for
Culture, Media and Sport since it was established in 2001, and there are limited data
predating 2014. Since 2010, a total of £358,356,027 has been allocated in grant funding
to support places of worship throughout the UK. Based on the data the Department does
possess, it can be estimated that 22,633 listed places of worship were the recipients
of grant funding through the scheme since 2014.</p>
