We believe everyone deserves equal access to all the fun, education, information, job opportunities and money-saving tools the internet represents.

Plenty of individuals and organizations share our enthusiasm: there are countless projects up and down the country that are already hard at work helping the least privileged in British society take their first steps online. Here’s just a handful that have inspired us so far.

We want this website to grow to be a lively hub for all your great work, in all its brilliant diversity, and we want to share stories that will inspire us all to go the extra mile.

Please get in touch to tell us about your project: be it bold government programme to a small-scale pilot. We want to hear about everything that adds velocity to our campaign: from community journalism projects, intergenerational teach-your-granny to Skype classes at your school and recycling computer schemes run by councils.
