Protecting and rejuvenating these beautiful havens of heritage and wildlife
Unique Spaces….
Caring for God’s Acre works nationally to support groups and individuals to investigate, care for, and enjoy churchyards and burial grounds.
There are over 20,000 burial grounds in England and Wales, ranging from small rural medieval churchyards to large Victorian city cemeteries, spanning different cultures, religions and centuries.
For many people burial grounds are the only locally accessible green space. However, their heritage value, and even their continuing presence, cannot be taken for granted. They are under threat from development, closure, under management and mismanagement.
Join the movement. Let’s keep burial grounds beautiful, accessible and connected to their communities.
