trainees learn how to refurbish donated machines which are then sold at
affordable prices, to fund the program. As an organisation we are committed to
bridging the digital divide in our area so a percentage of our refurbished
computers are donated through our community partners to ensure they reach people
in need. Why support us By donating your unwanted machines, not only will you be
stopping them from going to landfill but you will be providing meaningful
training and employment opportunities for people with learning difficulties and
SEMH (social, emotional, and mental health) needs. What we need Working

everything is reusable. If “WEEE” is to be re-used, then it never becomes a
waste and can be classified as used electrical and electronic equipment (UEEE).
