Good Things Foundation1, the UK’s leading digital inclusion charity, has joined forces with People’s Partnership, a not-for-profit pension provider serving 7 million members to help low-income and digitally excluded adults build the skills and confidence they need to manage their money online.
People’s Partnership2, which provides the People’s Pension scheme, will support Good Things Foundation’s free online learning platform, Learn My Way, by co-developing a new module. The collaboration also includes a digital journey audit and a series of webinars delivered through the National Digital Inclusion Network.
This announcement marks a significant step for People’s Partnership as it embarks on this new major charity collaboration, bringing its financial expertise into the social sector to reach those often excluded from both digital access and financial planning.
The initiative is timed to support communities ensuring more people can confidently manage their financial future online.
“This partnership is about breaking down the barriers that stop people from confidently engaging with their financial future,”
said Helen Milner OBE, Group Chief Executive of Good Things Foundation.
“By combining our skills in digital inclusion with People’s Partnership’s pensions expertise, we’re empowering low-income and vulnerable adults – many of whom are digitally excluded – to take control of their financial future.”
Nicola Sinclair, Head of Responsible Business of People’s Partnership, said:
“We’re proud to be working with Good Things Foundation on this major charity partnership. As a pension provider with purpose, we’re committed to helping our 7 million members build financial foundations for life, and financial wellbeing forms a central part of this. We passionately believe that everyone deserves access to tools and knowledge to enable them to plan for their future.
“At the heart of both organisations there is a clear commitment to inclusion, and that means making sure no one is left behind in the digital age.”
