What's next
“You cannot scale digital inclusion by trying to do it all yourself.
The only way to reach the eight million people who still lack basic digital skills, and the two million households who can’t afford connectivity, is by working in partnership. That means embedding digital inclusion in health services, in housing support, in job centres, as well as in community organisations and charities. It means making it everyone’s responsibility.
That’s the work we have ahead of us, and it’s work we can’t do alone. ”
