Driving the UK's digital revolution

Connecting you to the world

We run the UK's digital network. We're the people who connect homes, mobile phone masts, schools, shops, banks, hospitals, libraries, broadcasters, governments and businesses – large and small – to the world.

It's our mission to build the best possible network with the highest quality of service, and make sure that everyone in the UK can be connected.
