AbilityNet announces the first ever Technology4Good Youth Awards

Make your pitch to a Dragon's Den at Windsor Castle and win £5,000...

The Technology4Good Youth Awards are an exciting new competition to encourage young people to use accessible technology to help make the world a better place. Shortlisted groups will receive three months mentoring from some of the UK’s top businesses and charities and the winner be chosen at an Awards Ceremony at Windsor Castle, with trophies and a cash prize for the winners to help develop their ideas into a real project. The Awards are organised by two charities - AbilityNet and Groundwork - and are supported by BT and a range of commercial and not for profit partners.

The Technology4Good Youth Awards build on the enormous success of Technology4Good Awards, which were launched by Abilitynet in 2010:

• Entries need to be submitted online by 5pm on 30th November 2012
