Context

This page showcases the map we have worked on with Norfolk and Waveney ICS to map digital inclusion. It is a starting point for understanding better where digital inclusion efforts should be targeted across Norfolk to:

• Focus on the greatest need
• Build on existing capacity

The questions we're trying to answer:

<aside> 1️⃣ Which areas of Norfolk are most at risk of their populations being digitally excluded?

</aside>

<aside> 2️⃣ Which areas of Norfolk are at risk of digital exclusion for particular factors, such as age, deprivation, rurality or type of internet use?

</aside>

<aside> 3️⃣ What digital inclusion activities are already underway in Norfolk and where?

</aside>

<aside> 4️⃣ Where are there existing places that could be 'activated' to deliver digital inclusion activities?

</aside>

<aside> 5️⃣ Where are the health-related first points of contact which may be able to refer in to digital inclusion activities?

</aside>

The map

<aside> ℹ️ There are 7 layers on this map. This includes:

1. IMD Decile
2. CDRC Internet User Classification
3. Rurality
4. Over 65 population
5. Where things could happen
6. What’s happening already
7. Health related support - GP practices, Hospitals and Clinics, Pharmacies </aside>

<aside> ℹ️ To decide the how dark the colours should be for a particular area in a particular layer, we have grouped areas by certain risk factors.

In terms of the background layers, the darker the green colour for an area, the more likely it is that its population is at risk from being digitally-excluded. This applies for each individual layer in isolation as well as the overall picture with multiple layers 'switched on'.
