Digital Inclusion Innovation Fund
DSIT is delighted to announce the launch of the Digital Inclusion Innovation Fund (the Fund) which will open on Wednesday 13 August 2025 and will remain open for applications until 10 September 2025, 15:00.
The Digital Inclusion Innovation Fund is one of the first five actions set out in the Digital Inclusion Action Plan: First Steps to support digitally excluded people.
The Fund aims to support:
- Innovative interventions to produce new knowledge on ‘what works’, building the evidence base on effective digital inclusion interventions.
- Best practice with the ambition to scale and replicate successful activities across England to increase digital participation.
Local authorities, combined authorities, charities, research organisations and consortiums can apply for grants from the Digital Inclusion Innovation Fund to support digitally excluded people in England. Grants of £25,000 to £500,000 are available to fund projects of different sizes.
The Fund is a part of the Government’s Plan for Change and signals our commitment to empowering communities through digital inclusion.
We encourage you to share this opportunity with your networks and consider applying if your organisation is eligible.
The application form, guidance document and other supporting documents will be available on the Find a Grant page by clicking here.
