The Community Technology Grant Fund is to encourage greater use of technologies by community groups.
The grant is open to village hall / community centre committees, as well as parish and town councils, to purchase equipment such as laptop, projector, screen or other technology that local groups would find useful.
The grants are for up to £2,000, with the applicant finding at least 20% of the total costs, to cover the purchase of new equipment (not to cover the cost of purchases already made).
The grant programme has been introduced in preparation for the broadband network in Herefordshire being greatly improved as national government along with local funding and private sector investment is made in the county.
The deadline for submitting completed applications is 14th February 2012.
