Welsh Government have made £10 million available under the Local Broadband Fund to support local authorities and social enterprises to deliver broadband projects locally. This is one part of work to help make sure everyone has access to fast and reliable digital infrastructure. With this funding local authorities and social enterprises can deliver innovative broadband solutions to communities and parts of Wales which do not currently have access to 30Mbps broadband speeds.

The application form, guidance and assessment criteria can be found on their website https://gov.wales/local-broadband-fund

If you have an idea for a project but would like the opportunity to discuss the potential proposal with a member of the funding panel before making an application, please email NextGenerationBroadB1(at)gov.wales to book a time slot. 

The closing date for applications will be 28th January 2021.
