Of course as you would expect we have created
information in all formats including Easy Read, large print, audio versions etc
–further information can be found on twitter Heritage Ability@HeritageAbility.
The three year
project is funded by the Heritage Lottery Fund and will see improvements in the
accessibility of over 20 heritage sites-and we want to expand!. Our partner sites
include a range of visitor experiences, from Country Parks and grand homes to
industrial sites and nature reserves. We are placing the award-winning
Trampers, an all-terrain mobility vehicle, for anybody who needs them, to open
up the physical locations as well as a raft of online improvements, staff
training and new products.
Voting closes on
July 27th and more information can be found at www.lotterygoodcauses.org.uk/awards
