This is a network for organisations who are keen to co-ordinate and amplify digital inclusion activity across Cumbria. We focus on making things happen around the three main pillars of digital inclusion:
- Skills: what Digital Champion activity is happening where
- Devices: what schemes are there to help people obtain devices
- Data & Connectivity:similar schemes for obtaining data, and how we can boost connectivity (particular important in rural Cumbria).
The network came together through our ongoing Let's Get Digital, West Cumbria project.You don't have to be a member of that project to join the Network. Everyone is Welcome!
Meetings are online, every quarter. The next meeting is in December 2024.
If you’d like to come, please contact Sarah Jewell, the Project Lead, direct.
