Dynamo Digital Inclusion Fund

About Dynamo Digital Inclusion Fund

The Dynamo Digital Inclusion Fund is focused on supporting initiatives that enable individuals to gain confidence in digital technology and help to create and inspire pathways into employment in the technology sector and thrive in an increasingly digital world.

What is the grant to be used for?

Grants of up to £5,000 will be awarded to organisations that can provide innovative and/or pilot schemes or programmes in any of the following areas:

• engaging vulnerable or socially and economically disadvantaged communities in skill-building and educational activities that increase digital confidence and capability; or
• inspiring and supporting underrepresented groups to access pathways into employment within the technology sector; or
• delivering targeted advocacy and practical support around digital inclusion, with a clear focus on empowering local communities.

Exclusions: Please note that the Fund will not support the purchase of any IT equipment or connectivity equipment (this includes items such as SIM cards-if you need this support, the Digital Poverty Alliance may be able to help SIM card request – Digital Poverty Alliance).

Organisations that were successful in receiving a grant last year can apply again. Organisations may apply for projects / work which expands on or builds on the work funded last year and applications should highlight the impact of the previous round of funding.

Please note that our normal grant making eligibility will apply so please see details on the funding and support page of our website.
