CSR at BT

As the UK’s leading communications services provider, we can make a real difference to communities across the UK and around the world and we take our corporate and social responsibility seriously.

With our tech literacy programme, we’re kick-starting a culture change to help people understand how technology works and why it’s so important. We aim to improve teaching in computing and tech skills for 5 million children by 2020. And we’re helping young people develop the skills and experience they need to get their first job. Our technology, expertise and volunteers have helped raise millions of pounds for good causes.

This helps charities, communities, and us too. Our people get the chance to develop skills and make a difference. And we become a stronger, more engaged organisation that gives back to our communities.

And that’s not all we do!

Charity partners

We work with a range of charities to make sure we give something back to those who deserve it the most. 

Educational grants

Communities can apply for a grant of up to £20,000 toward the cost of their new fibre infrastructure via our Community Fibre Partnerships programme. 

Services for charities

Not only do we fundraise for charities, but also provide services; be that technology, or sharing our skills. We are proud of the ways we can help. 

Volunteering

We give our people 3 days per year for volunteering or for carrying out charity work, but that’s not all we do. By 2020, our aim is to have two thirds of our workforce volunteering.
