The Places of Next Great Save - Historic Places Days

The Places of Next Great Save

Between October 2022 and February 2023, the National Trust for Canada with the support of Ecclesiastical Insurance, ran the Next Great Save competition. The competition was created to help communities save heritage places that matter by awarding prize money that could be used for projects to adapt, renew or improve heritage places for the future.
Over 200,000 votes were placed between January 20 and February 22 from coast to coast to coast for ten groups who are saving heritage places that matter. Learn more about the ten finalists below!
