ICT Homepage
In 2005 VONNE pioneered the role of a Regional ICT Champion in the third sector to help our organisations get the digital and communications advice, guidance and support they needed to thrive, and which was not available to them in-house. The model of support was so successful it was quickly emulated and rolled out nationally across all of the other eight English regions.
Between 2005 and 2011 and in addition to running ICT support and capacity building projects, we developed a host of resources, toolkits and signpostings to digital support services and ICT guidance providers.
Although the post is no longer funded, we hope these pages are still of use and that the links provided remain live as long as possible. If there is anything else you think would be helpful to see here, please feel free to contact us.
