Digital Outreach Grants - £500 Available

Digital Outreach is providing grants of up to £500 to enable local organisations and groups to increase awareness of the digital switchover.

Kensington and Chelsea Social Council has been appointed by Digital Outreach to be the lead organisation in the areas covered by the Crystal Palace (London) transmitter, and are managing and administering the grants scheme in the area of Kensington and Chelsea.

Who can apply for a grant?

Any community group or voluntary organisation can apply for a grant. The fund is not available for private companies or individuals.

What types of events, activities or services can be funded?

The one requirement we have is that the grant should be to help engage people, fund activities or raise awareness of switchover and the Help Scheme in a way that adds value to what is already planned.

We want to help local organisations to include digital switchover and Help Scheme information in local events, meetings, presentations and visits with the target groups we need to reach. Digital Outreach encourage groups to come up with innovative or unusual ways of raising awareness and understanding about the digital switchover and the Help Scheme.

We will not fund activities that involve commercial activities or are not focused on digital switchover.
