Organisations in the UK and Ireland that are working to address and test solutions to the digital exclusion of vulnerable young people aged 12-25 can apply for funding.

Funding has been made available by the Carnegie UK Trust as part of their #NotWithoutMe project following their research which revealed that without access to digital technology or basic digital skills, people and communities are suffering increasing levels of disadvantage, especially those who may be at points of transition in their lives, such as being unemployed, homeless or in-care.

The Carnegie UK Trust will provide £10,000 to each successful applicant and provide advice to help develop a framework for evaluating project activities and help groups to identify external support.

The deadline for applications is 6th November 2015.
