Circuit Riding in the North East
Matt Legg, my counterpart in the north east of England, has compiled a report on the ChangeUp funded pilot IT/ICT support project, Circuit Riders North East (CRNE), which ran across the north east region from January to June 2006.
The project:
- created partnerships with private sector ICT support companies to provide 100 free health-checks;
- worked with Net:gain to provide 100 free places for organisations undertaking strategic planning of their ICT.
Matt tells us that a number of new initiatives to ensure continued ICT support for organisations in the north east are underway, such as:
- ‘Next Steps’ workshops on managing data, ICt funding and systems maintenance
- 5 interns from local IT consultants to develop an online toolkit that will help voluntary sector organisations complete basic ICT strategies and plan their ICT funding.
