Digital Poverty Alliance

Last year, the Digital Poverty Alliance introduced the UK Digital Inclusion Awards to recognise organisations that had moved beyond commitment and into delivery. This webinar brings those award recipients back together to reflect on what has happened since, and what they have learned along the way.

On Wednesday 25 February, from 12-1pm, Elizabeth Anderson, CEO, Digital Poverty Alliance, will host a panel discussion with the winners. The conversation will explore why digital inclusion rose to the top of their organisational agendas, the factors that shaped their early decisions, and how their approaches have evolved. The focus will be on practical experience: the choices, pressures, and successes involved in embedding digital inclusion into established ways of working.

Panellists:

Claire Fewings-Williams, Digital and AI Delivery Lead at Salford City Council
Shelly Langan-Newton, Co-Founder and CEO of SQR
Sylvia Copley, CEO of Shiney Advice & Resource Project
Jade Baker, Community Programmes Manager at Virgin Media O2
Vicki Evans, Head of CSR, UK and Ireland at Atos
