About the awards

The TalkTalk Digital Heroes Awards is an awards and funding scheme with a difference: it is the UK's only scheme which recognises people who harness digital technology to bring about positive social change in their communities.

The TalkTalk Digital Heroes Awards, with Citizens Online and in association with The Mirror – and supported by Race Online 2012 – offers people a chance to win funding for a new or existing digital project.

We've sorted through the entries to shortlist the three best in each of the 12 regions and asked the public to vote for their regional winners.

The 12 winning projects from around the country will be awarded a £5,000 grant and will go through to a grand final at the House of Lords, with one overall winner getting £10,000.

We’ve now announced our 12 amazing Digital Heroes, chosen by you, who have each won £5,000 towards their digital projects. You can view the winners here.
