The Regional ICT Project is now up and running, and is offering ICT health-checks to third sector infrastructure organisations. 45 organisations across the region will be able to benefit from these in depth ICT health-checks, which are fully funded by BIG Lottery fund. The health-checks will help organisations to review their uses of ICT and to plan for the future.

N.B. These health-checks are only available to third sector infrastructure organisations.

Alongside the ICT health checks, the project will also be offering ICT workshops for third sector infrastructure organisations. These will be aimed at development workers and other staff involved in providing support to frontline organisations. The purpose of these workshops is to enable staff to become more skilled and confident about supporting organisations with their ICT needs. For example, the workshops will provide key tools for signposting organisations to appropriate sources of help, including the wide range of ICT resources which are available online.
