Community Programmes

Our Community Programmes

We’re invested in our community and we strongly believe that – in a society where there’s a lot of stuff that creates an uneven playing field – access to technology should not be based on your level of income, your age, or your educational background.

At the moment, we have three specific programmes that work together with the main goal of getting people who need access to technology, a working laptop that they will be able to use for email, research, social media and connections, and work applications and productivity.

Programme 1 – eWaste Pickup and Recycling

We will come and pick up your eWaste and where possible, re-purpose it for other uses (we’re particularly interested in PC’s or laptops).  If we can’t reuse it, we’ll make sure that it’s disassembled and discarded in the most optimal environmentally-sound way.

Programme 2 – Repurposing PC’s and Laptops

In recent years, the development of the ChromeOS has meant that old machines can (relatively) easily be repurposed and be quite effective for most of the core operations needed to connect and be productive (internet, email and office applications). We’ll give older machines a new lease on life by completely reformatting them to operate under ChromeOS, and we’ll test them to make sure they are quick, robust and ready to go.

Programme 3 – Basic Training and Support

What use is having a computer if you don’t know how to operate it, or if you can’t perform the tasks you need to perform? We have developed a suite of online training programs and guides for users of our machines (and we’ll provide a basic level of ongoing support to ensure our community programme customers can access them).

Drop us a line and lets talk about what you need and how we might be able to help.
