Contact your conservation officer. In some cases, if it can be justified to preserve the special interest of the listed building, conservation officers can reduce the need for change to make a building comply with some elements of buildings regulations or other legislation.
Many councils also run small grant programmes to aid community facilities. The conservation officer may be aware of this. Changes to increase public access to a building may come under the remit of some of these grants - if your council area has any.
If any works are necessary simply for maintenance of a building it is highly unlikely any outside organisation would fund these.
