Cheshire and Warrington contain a high proportion of rural or remotely located areas that have been particularly impacted by poor levels of digital connectivity. Many of the areas with pre-existing issues of lack of employment opportunities and digital exclusion issues could experience further adversity if digital services and assistance is not available or accessible.
Through the Digital Cheshire partnership, the project aims to play a pivotal part of the 'digital revolution' underway across the region; by embracing new and emerging technologies and introducing new opportunities and methodologies to rethink how services can be provided and encourage business growth. We want to improve connectivity and digital inclusion for all our communities and help businesses to benefit from the convenience and flexibility it can bring.
