There are many opportunities for how the use of technology could improve your community, whether it’s to stay connected with loved ones, share skills for a good cause, or even organise community clean-ups.

We’re inviting creative groups and businesses like yourself to submit ideas on ideas or projects you have that get people involved in their communities.

Do you have an idea on how to make your local area a better place to live using technology? Do you want to win the chance for your idea to be turned into reality and win up to £9000 in prizes and more in support to help take your idea forward?

If you want us to facilitate a workshop to help your group develop ideas, we’d be happy to come and host, just get in touch!

We’re organising a competition to stimulate collaboration between public services, entrepreneurs and communities to develop innovative ways of using technology to improve their neighbourhoods…and we’d love your ideas!

To submit your idea or to find out more, go to www.simpl.co/challenges/31-transformed-by-you or contact innovation@kent.gov.uk.
