Free Sim Cards with Data & Minutes

As part of Greenwich Supports, we have partnered with GLL and the Good Things Foundation’s national scheme to provide 7,200 free mobile sims to residents on a low-income, with no contracts required, residents will not be tied in or expected to pay any money towards keeping the sim open.

Cllr Adel Kharieh, Cabinet Member for Equality, Culture and Communities said: “Initiatives like this ensure that everyone gets digital access to contact the Council and learn about support in their local community, no matter their finances. Beyond that, it allows residents to pay bills online and contact loved ones when they feel isolated.

To be eligible for a sim-card, you must be over the age of 18 and from a low-income household. Three options will be available from Virgin Media 02, Vodafone and Three, all with different data and minute packages. All 12 library branches will have a one-hour surgery each week for distribution.
