The Government has set up a Digital Inclusion Team to promote the benefits of tackling ‘exclusion’ and improving the quality of life through new technology.

The Digital Inclusion Team is funded by the UK Government (Department of Communities and Local Government) and hosted by the City of London to implement the report “Inclusion Through Innovation” published in 2005. The Team’s focus is on how the innovative application of digital technologies, of many kinds, can improve the lives and life chances of socially excluded people and deprived neighbourhoods in England.

Those who are digitally included can click on the following link to play a video explaining the role of the new Team. ‘Think about it’ runs for just over 8 minutes and is a slide-show with music.
