West Dunbartonshire organisations that work with digitally excluded families and young people in care are being encouraged to get involved with a programme aiming to get more people online.
Funding for Connecting Scotland, which aims to give low income families and individuals an internet device as well as twelve months unlimited data and technical support has now reached £43 million.

With around a hundred applications already received for the current phase of the programme, local authorities and third sector bodies have just a few weeks left to seek support for the families and care leavers they work with, with further details on how the additional funding will work expected next month.
