Inspiring the Next Generation of Tech Talent: A Morning with Better Society Capital
It is always immensely valuable when industry leaders share their knowledge with those starting out or returning to work. We recently hosted Stewart, Head of IT at Better Society Capital, for an inspiring session with our local IT volunteers and Digital Champions. Stewart shared his career journey, gave a practical look into working in tech, and generously donated a tablet to support our digital inclusion work.
Empowering Local Communities
For our volunteers, hearing directly from an industry leader shows that a tech career is genuinely achievable. To bridge the digital divide across London, we deliver free digital skills training in the UK, offering basic IT skills courses for free and digital literacy courses in the UK across key locations:
- Wandsworth Library & Battersea Library: Digital drop-ins and practical skill workshops.
- Southfields Library & Roehampton Library: 1-on-1 assistance with device setup and job applications.
- Tooting Library: Online safety and digital confidence sessions.
How Hardware & CSR Support Drive Social Value
Access to devices is as vital as skills. When people donate laptops in the UK or work with a computer recycling charity, functional devices are diverted from e-waste to families in need. Whether you want to recycle computers near you or find laptops for charity, choosing to recycle electrical items drives real community change.
Partnering with us helps businesses deliver on their CSR strategy, ESG strategy, and sustainability goals:
Impact Reporting: Gain clear metrics for your responsible business goals.
Corporate Volunteering: Boost employee engagement through guest talks or technology volunteer roles.
Sustainability Initiatives: Reduce e-waste while building local social value.
