This year, the fund offers three grants of up to £3000 for the winners, and Up to £1,000 in match funding for all other eligible applicants. The fundings can be spent on any UK-based digitisation project, provided in the form of TownsWeb Archiving’s digitisation and software services of equivalent value.

To apply for funding, it’s necessary to provide a few information in order to receive the grant application via email. You can apply here. All applications must be submitted by 11:59pm on 28th July 2023. Winners will be announced live at the ARA Annual Conference and via livestream on 30th August 2023.
