The agreement comes after AND Digital built the first phase of the Find a Grant service for Cabinet Office in 2022.

Since then, over 85,000 citizens have successfully used the new service to find and apply for government grants in the first 12 months after the initial beta launch.

Peter Dale, Club Executive at AND Digital’s Glasgow club, comments: “Cabinet Office set out an ambitious goal of creating a single online access point for all eligible UK Government grant opportunities with improved efficiency, accessibility and transparency of government grants.

“At AND Digital, we were able to provide in-depth technical expertise, but also our commitment as we are heavily invested in the overall success and outcomes of the project.

“We are delighted to continue our relationship with Cabinet Office in developing the next phase of Find a Grant. It’s particularly exciting to be working on something that has such a strong societal impact and which will further support the Government’s digital ambitions.”

The project will be managed and executed from AND Digital’s Glasgow club and follows ongoing successful engagements with the UK Government, through AND Digital’s clubs in Edinburgh and Halifax.
