Communities 2.0 - Digital Inclusion Project

 

As part of a larger consortium, PAVS has secured funding to deliver a Circuit Rider service of ICT development and support to voluntary and community groups within priority areas of Pembrokeshire.

Digital technology – such as mobile phones, computers and the internet - is becoming an important part of our everyday lives. However, there are many people who live and work in Wales who are missing out on the benefits of new technology.

Communities 2.0 is a Welsh Assembly Government project which helps community groups, voluntary organisations and social enterprises in Wales to benefit from technology. We want to break down the barriers to using technology, inspire people, build confidence and create opportunities.

CVC Circuit Rider Project

During 2006-08 PAVS delivered an ICT support and development service to voluntary and community (third sector)organisations, helping them to make the best use of ICT within their group.

All the groups responded fantastically with enthusiasm and drive - whether it was to create a new website for their members, updating their network to improve office tasks or using new technologies, like Skype, to cut costs.

 

As part of the project, the team developed an online resource for articles, website links and downloads.

The team also produced a CD containing information on the work of the Circuit Riders including Case Studies of voluntary groups using ICT, evaluations of the technologies used by the team to support the groups and much more.

The content of the CD is now available on line at the link below.
