Giving Tech a Second Life: How Circularity Helps Local Students

To us, the circular economy is pretty simple: stop letting good tech collect dust and get it to the kids who actually need it.

We loved this quote from one of our tech team recently… and it really is as satisfying as it sounds! 💪

Instead of letting old laptops end up in a landfill (or sitting in that drawer of forgotten electronics we all have), we wipe them, fix them up, and hand them straight to local students. Old tech gets a second life, and a young person gets to do their homework without stress. Win-win!

Make an Impact with Your Unused Devices

Got a spare laptop sitting around at home or work? Don’t let it waste away! Getting involved is easy and directly supports digital inclusion in our local community:

Support Local Hubs: We work to ensure everyone across Wandsworth Library, Battersea Library, Southfields Library, Roehampton Library, and Tooting Library can access the tools they need to succeed.

Donate Your Tech: If you want to donate laptops in the UK, find a computer recycling charity, or recycle computers near me, we make it simple to pass on your device.

Corporate CSR & ESG: Businesses looking to meet sustainability goals, enhance their CSR strategy, or fulfill their ESG strategy can donate surplus hardware as laptops for charity while handling responsible electrical item recycling.
