Communications Minister Pat Rabbitte today welcomed 23 Digital Outreach Champions who have just been selected to help create greater awareness and understanding of the Digital Switchover in local communities across the country.

The Digital Outreach Champions who will cover every county in the Republic Of Ireland, have gathered in Dublin for two days of training which will inform them of the nature and scope of the Department of Communications, Energy & Natural Resources’ Digital Switchover national information and awareness campaign and outline what on-the-ground activities they will embark on in their roles as Digital Outreach Champions.
