The National Databank
We provide free SIM cards to those who need them most.
Who can access our support?
The National Databank is a UK wide programme that provides free mobile data to individuals facing data poverty.
It's essentially a "sim card bank" for those who cannot easily access the internet.
How it works
TWC is one of over 1,000 Digital Inclusion Hubs across the UK, where eligible individuals can receive free SIM cards loaded with mobile data, calls, and texts.
- Hubs distribute donated data from mobile networks like O2, Vodafone, and Three.
- Staff help identify those in need.
- We ensure that people without internet access - especially those facing financial hardship or digital exclusion - can stay connected to essential services, job opportunities, education, and social support
