What could your organisation achieve with an extra £2,000 for digital inclusion?

-Could you help more people build digital confidence?
-Train staff or volunteers to provide better digital support?
-Improve internet access so more people can benefit from online services?

The Digital NNS Fund offers grants of up to £2,000 to help Birmingham organisations become more digitally inclusive and support older adults and people with long-term disabilities to get online.

If you're considering applying, join our next Grant Q&A Session on 11 June. We'll talk through:

✅ Who can apply
✅ What the funding can support
✅ How to develop a strong project idea
✅ The application process

Sometimes a small grant can be the catalyst for a much bigger impact in your community.

🌟 What a fantastic P&C Forum today! 🌟 With the 40 projects who receive Prevention and Communities grants from Adult Social Care.

It was truly wonderful to see so many providers coming together in one space, sharing ideas, asking thoughtful questions, and showing such a strong commitment to your citizens that you support.

A special thank you to Rita Adams for delivering such clear and concise messages, helping to bring clarity and focus to the discussions. 👏

We really appreciated how engaged everyone was, the conversations, the questions, and the energy in the room made it a really valuable and positive session.

It was also great to see so many connections being made across the room. 🤝 Seeing providers link up, share experiences, and start new conversations is exactly what these forums are about.

✨ The key question now is: how do we make sure these connections continue beyond today?
Let’s keep the conversation going, reach out, follow up, and build on the relationships started today. That’s where real impact happens.

Thank you all again for your time, openness, and commitment!
