Fix The Digital Divide Fund: Capability Grant

A £6,000 grant for members of the National Digital Inclusion Network who want to add to or boost their current digital services.

What is the Capablity Grant?

The Capability Grant, part of the Fix The Digital Divide Fund 2024-2025, is for organisations who have some experience delivering digital inclusion support already.

This grant provides an opportunity to further develop your organisation’s capacity to deliver digital inclusion support and ultimately help more people to either gain digital skills or access free mobile data.

Previous successful applicants have used the Capability Grant to:

help build partnerships that allow them to distribute more data by covering staff time or working on a local campaign
refresh an IT suite used to provide Learn My Way support
design and implement a training programme for staff and volunteers to develop their confidence to help people accessing data and support.

Each Hub will be provided the opportunity to access support from one of our Network Ambassadors.

Who’s eligible for the Capability Grant?

We welcome applications from organisations across the UK who want to develop their digital inclusion offer.

Any member of the National Digital Inclusion Network can apply for a Capability grant, no matter where they’re based or who they support, but you cannot apply for an Impact Grant at the same time.

Organisations who received either a Digital Inclusion Impact Grant or a Digital Inclusion Capability Grant through Fix The Digital Divide Fund 2023 to 2024 are eligible to apply.

Please note: all Hubs must pass a financial due diligence check and an identity check where once has not recently been undertaken before a grant is awarded and accept online Terms & Conditions.

Full eligibility criteria can be found in the Grant Description & Application Guidance.
