"Thousands of homeless people will be given smartphones and laptops to help them stay informed, connected and able to access support during the coronavirus pandemic.
A two-year partnership, between Tesco Mobile and the homelessness charity Crisis, will see people without homes given £700,000 worth of phones, devices and internet data.
In the first year, the two companies aim to provide 2,500 homeless people with phones, laptops and tablets, while the public is also being urged to hand in their old smartphones or donate to help connect more people."

I don't think you'll be able to get statistics to reference about the numbers of homeless people who have no access to a smart phone and don't know anything about modern means of communication. |
