Funding to support Clarion Housing residents to get online and build digital skills and confidence.

Clarion Housing Group has announced the final application window of this financial year for its Digital Grants programme.

The Fund is designed to address digital exclusion, and to:

• Support Clarion residents to discover the full scope of how the internet can assist them in their everyday lives, and provide them with the skills and confidence to do so.
• Support residents to access the tools that meet their individual needs and circumstances.
• Encourage residents to use the internet safely and with confidence.
• Support residents of all ages, regardless of whether they go online regularly, to use it safely, and avoid risky and/or illegal behaviour.

Grants of between £1,000 and £5,000 are available to not-for-profit organisations as long as they can prove that the majority of project beneficiaries will be Clarion residents.

Funding can cover costs associated with running activities, as well as equipment and software costs that are necessary and appropriate to the project.

The deadline to apply is midday on 21 September 2022.
