Seventeen heritage projects across the UK will share £1m to improve volunteers' digital skills.
The money comes from the National Lottery Heritage Fund's Digital Skills for Heritage initiative.
The fund aims to break down barriers and inspire the sector to get more people involved in heritage, according to National Lottery Heritage Fund CEO Ros Kerslake.
Charity for the blind and partially sighted Vocal Eyes received the largest grant (£99,814) for its Museums and Heritage Access 2022 programme, which primarily recruits digital volunteers from Deaf, disabled and neurodivergent communities.
