Get Online Week, has been held every year since 2007. In that time and in collaboration with the National Digital Inclusion Network, Good Things Foundation have hosted thousands of free community events across the UK, helping millions of people learn new skills and confidently get online to do things like safely navigate the web or try out AI.
Digital exclusion isn’t always black and white, or a simple case of being online or offline. In the UK today, 34 million adults are online with some barriers or vulnerabilities, and only 1 in 3 adults are comfortably online. When you can’t get online and don’t have the skills or confidence to navigate the online world, it’s impossible to get by in life.
From 19 to 25 October 2026, Good Things Foundation are asking you to take action and help them raise awareness of digital inclusion and advocate for everyone to be able to participate in a digital society.
