We appreciate the latest set of Covid restrictions means that many people in our community are having to access services remotely through digital channels whether that’s for shopping, schooling, keeping in touch with family and friends, medical services etc. All of these services require access to digital devices such as laptops or tablets. Our community survey in 2019 highlighted that connectivity is one of the key priorities for our community.
Auchtertool Community Trust has been discussing ways that we can help make it easier for people to access these services remotely especially during the Covid restrictions. One of the ways we think we can do that is through providing financial awards to put towards the purchase of new or additional devices so that everyone who needs to access a suitable device can.
Our £200 bursary process wasn’t initially designed to provide support to purchase communication devices. However we believe there may be value in extending the bursary awards to be used towards the purchase of new laptop or devices for anyone in the village who would benefit.
Therefore we would like to ask for your view. Please use the survey below to let us know if you would be in support of us extending the bursary awards to provide £200 towards the purchase of new devices.
The survey will close at on Sunday at 7pm
