National Databank

What is the National Databank?

The National Databank is like a food bank, but for internet connectivity data. Community organisations can apply to access the databank, enabling them to provide free data to people in their communities who need it.

Access free mobile data from the National Databank through a network of Good Things Foundation ‘Digital Inclusion Hubs’.

I can’t afford my internet or phone – how can you help?

Most of the local libraries in LCR are registered databanks – pop in to your nearest branch and mention the Databank and they’ll hopefully be able to help you.
There are a range of community organisations registered as Databanks across the region – to find your nearest Digital Inclusion Hub, click here.
If you are struggling to make ends meet and are not in work – consider contacting your nearest Ways to Work Team or Households into Work.

I’m an organisation – how can I apply to be a Databank?

The National Databank is open to community organisations who are members of Good Things Foundation’s Online Centres Network. Joining our network is free and gives you access to support and resources. However you are welcome to join just to access the National Databank.
