In addition to the broadband offer, from 28 February to 13 March 2005, BT will also be donating £1 from every BT product sold through its online shop. This initiative is expected to raise up to £10,000.
BT has supported Comic Relief since it began in 1985. This year BT is providing the telephone network for the Red Nose Day donation line.
