Great talking to ITV. On budget day we need all politicians to see that fixing the digital divide makes social, political, and economic sense (£13.7 Billion benefit). Business and charities are stepping up. Why not Government? Together we can #FixTheDigitalDivide #Budget2024

It’s been a busy week of media for our CEO @helenmilner! 8 radio and a TV interview already - all raising awareness of digital exclusion as we kick off our campaign #DigitalForAll. Hear why digital inclusion isn’t only important for social equality, but also the economy 👇

I hope @BBCr4today is going to mention the millions of people who don’t have the “know how” or who can’t afford connectivity to use the NHS app. Great improvements to the app ✅ AND there is help to use the app from @GoodThingsFdn and 1000s of local places. Two sides to the story

It was great to talk to ITV news on budget day in March. I'm talking to the BBC on budget day tomorrow. I'll keep you posted.
