The Digital Inclusion Innovation Fund was designed as a one-year programme to understand what works in digital inclusion, and how best practice or innovative approaches can be scaled to maximise local impact across the UK.

We remain committed to building a digitally inclusive society where no one is left behind, and plans for future support for digital inclusion are still in development.
