We encourage everyone in our community to take advantage of these free resources. If you would like to support our mission, there are many ways to get involved. You can volunteer in Wandsworth and support residents to gain vital IT skills by sharing your time and knowledge. Another way to help is to donate laptops, tablets, or phones to reduce e-waste and support learning for local families.
