Breakwater IT are looking for individuals and businesses across Norfolk to donate their old laptops. These laptops would be repurposed and distributed to students who are struggling to access remote education.
In the current lockdown, students have returned to online learning from home. However, there are some who may not possess the equipment to access remote learning.
In an aid to help, The Forum generously offered to send their old laptops back to us for repurposing. Following this, we decided to start asking our clients if they had any old laptops they wished to donate. We are pleased to now be opening the project to all businesses to donate.
Our team will rebuild and replace the hard drives in the laptops. As a result of replacing the hard drives, there is no risk to data being leaked. Ideally, the laptops will need to be less than 5 years old. We have the capacity to refurbish 100 laptops.
Here’s how it will work:
- Complete our online form stating how many laptops you have, along with a few other details.
- We’ll get in touch to let you know if we’re able to use your device(s) and arrange to get them to us.
- Our team will rebuild and replace the hard drive(s) in the laptop(s). As a result of replacing the hard drive(s), there is no risk to data being leaked. Your old hard drive(s) will be professionally destroyed, and a blank copy of Windows will be installed.
- We’ll distribute the laptops to those in need.
