TalkTalk has launched their search for the Digital Hero of 2014. The awards
recognise and reward people who are using technology to help their
communities. The awards are run in partnership with the charities Citizens
Online and Go ON UK.

This year, eight exciting new categories have been introduced with the
Young Digital Hero title being revamped as The Next Generation Digital Hero.

The eight winners, who will be decided by public vote, will each receive
£5,000 to enhance their digital project, with one overall winner chosen by
an expert judging panel receiving £10,000. The Next Generation Digital Hero
remains a special category which recognises the amazing talent shown by
young people in the world of digital.

The 2012 Digital Hero, Clare Sutcliffe will be joining the judging panel of
TalkTalk chairman Sir Charles Dunstone, Baroness Lane-Fox, Chair of Go ON
UK and Lloyd Embley, Editor-in-Chief of the Daily Mirror and Sunday Mirror.

The Twitter hashtag is #digitalheroes
