Annika Small, Nominet Trust CEO, commented: “The organisations supported in this funding round are using digital technology to support new forms of employment and agency for young people, new approaches to healthcare and new ways of lowering the cost of living for the squeezed middle. These ventures are further proof that digital technology is a vital tool in addressing persistent social problems.”

The trust is particularly keen to receive applications from projects that demonstrate how technology can support older people in their communities.

The deadline for the next funding round from Nominet Trust is 4 September 2013.
