Who we are

   Good Things Foundation is a social change charity.
   We believe in a world where everyone can benefit from
   digital. Through our Online Centres Network of hyperlocal
   partners, we are supporting people and communities to
   overcome some of the most pressing social challenges
   they are facing - through digital.
   This is a very exciting time for Good Things Foundation. We have been
   successful in a bid to deliver on an Assisted Digital service for the 2021
   Census, working closely with the Office for National Statistics (ONS).
   This is a critical part of a major national Government exercise, and a chance
   to support large numbers of people across England and Wales to participate
   in a ‘digital first’ census, as well as building their
   confidence with digital.
   The Assisted Digital service will see hundreds of community partners
   support people without digital skills to take part in the census.
   To support this project, we are recruiting for a number of Regional Census
   Support Managers who will be central and critical to its success.

                                                 we’ve helped over
                                                 2.4 million people
                                                 to improve their
                                                 lives using digital

                                                 we work with
                                                 5,000
