Smartphone donations

The Digital Inclusion team at Manchester City Council have a new batch of Android smartphones available for gifting to local VCSFEs within Manchester. These phones will come with 12 month SIM cards, providing free data for those who receive them.

The Digital Inclusion team want to ensure donated devices are distributed fairly and to those who need them most.

To help them to understand demand and allocate the smartphones based on their available supply, The Digital Inclusion team ask that you complete an eligibility form. This form will confirm your details and give The Digital Inclusion team insight into how the devices will support you or those you are supporting.

Please complete the form by 8th December 2025 to be considered in this round of donations.

Please note, completing the form does not guarantee a device, but it ensures you are considered when devices become available.

Allocations will be confirmed in writing within 2 weeks of the closing date.
