FIVE leading mobile phone networks have teamed up to ensure their customers can always access NHS advice.
Vodafone, EE, O2, Three and BT are giving customers free data access to NHS websites to help them find the latest information about coronavirus.
The move will ensure that the most vulnerable will always have access to the relevant health information without having to worry whether they have enough data to do so.
The idea was the brainchild of Anne Dhir who works for Snook, a business that specialises in redesigning public and private services, who was concerned that those with pay-as-you-go mobiles or low incomes may not have mobile data available to access important NHS website information on coronavirus.
Free data access to NHS sites is now available throughout the UK.
