Did you know...
Over 10 million people in the UK currently have never been online? We can all help to reduce this number, one by one, by helping someone we know get online.
The Internet is big though, really big. We need to give them each a place to start. That's where you come in. You know where they are and what they like and you can help them.
Featured partner organisation

What is this?
This is a prototype service made by Chris Thorpe at the Rewired State UK Online Hackday. Some of the original ideas behind the service came from a brainstorming session with The Workshop.
Some of the data is fictional and illustrative, such as the featured partner organisation panel, but the service works and the UK Online Centre data is correct and powered by the API which was built before the event.
