Huge thanks to @Solidaritech_ for the two laptops and a tablet for 3 refugees living with Latch.
Digital exclusion is a real issue for people rebuilding their lives after homelessness.
If you have old machines lying around consider donating to them solidartech.com – at Bradford, England

We’ve been asked to put a surprise box of tech treats for a digital company so that they can have a fun environmental hack team build.
Which components (bits & bytes) & kit would you love to get to play with?
(Not sausages maybe Pi & Chips)

Got an old broken phone in a drawer?

There are people doing brilliant #community stuff, behind the scenes, across #Leeds. Today, Alfie here in #Beeston got a refurbed laptop for free, via @DawYorks, to help him prepare for his GCSEs. Thanks to all who made this possible (+ they always welcome new volunteers + tech).
