Digital funding chance
Perth and Kinross Council is inviting community groups to bid for funding to improve digital participation and inclusion in their local community.
The Digital Inclusion Fund is for any project which provides access to digital technology and skills development or involves the installation of public wifi in community-owned or managed facilities.
There are no specific criteria for the fund, other than any facility the community groups are applying for must be owned or managed by a committee of community members; the community group must be able to maintain the running costs of the project into the longer term and any devices or other technologies remain the property of the applicant group.
Information about the fund can be found on the website at www.pkc.gov.uk/ pkgrantsdirect
The council’s digital participation working group will access the applications, and groups will be notified if they have been successful.
