Our commitment to social value
We’re increasing digital inclusion and giving back to local communities through on-the-ground initiatives that make real-world positive changes.
The five pillars of social value at BT are:
- Outreach: no one is forgotten in our social value delivery.
- Improvement: continuous improvement in our delivery.
- Sustainability: our incentives are built to last.
- Engagement: user voice at the forefront and not an afterthought.
- Equity: leveraging our power to mobilise individuals, institutions, and communities.
Social value creates opportunities for communities, improves quality of life and wellbeing for individuals, and promotes a more sustainable and equitable future.
