Exploring the Digital Divide with Helen Milner OBE

We recently had the opportunity to chat with Helen Milner OBE.    Helen is the CEO of the Good Things Foundation and it was really interesting to hear about Helen's time working in the internet, before the World Wide Web was even around.    Throughout this episode we learned loads about the digital divide, why it is important that people are included in digital and more about what the Good Things Foundation get up to.    Use our timestamps below to skip to whichever part interests you most:  00:00 - Intro  02:55 - Where did the passion for using technology come from?  06:16 - Back in the 80/90's did you think the internet would grow so much?  09:15 - Why is it important that people are digitally included?  13:54 - How the Good Things Foundation find out who is digitally excluded  17:38 - What barriers to using technology do people in the UK face?  21:00 - Who is digitally excluded throughout the UK?  25:39 - How have attitudes towards the internet changed since it began?  29:48 - What can people do to Make Things Better?   Huge shout out to Helen for joining us, we really enjoyed this chat and apologies about the audio not being the best.    We had a few technical issues which hopefully we have now learned from, so apologies if the audio is not the best. Thanks a lot for listening and have an awesome rest of your day!
