Hi, I had two laptops which I was going to throw out. I saw the news last night saying that there are a huge number of school children whose family?s can?t afford a laptop and therefore are struggling to learn from home. I contacted a friend of mine who is a teacher and she confirmed this upsetting fact.

I donated two of my laptops that I wasn?t using.

If anyone has an old iPad or laptop that they would like to donate, please, please contact me and I will put you in touch with a school in need.


So far I have received and given 18 devices to schools who have children in need from disadvantaged families.


If you don?t have an old device but still want to help, I am trying to raise money to buy 15 laptops for children who are in need.


This is the crowd funding link:

Many thanks in advance

I passed on my redundant desktop Mac to Lambeth Tech at the weekend. They take old PCs and Macs (and not necessarily laptops) to families and students struggling with being online - or take the parts from older models that can't be upgraded to later operating systems. They collect or one can drop-off at specific times.

    • A huge shout-out to Andy! He’s helped us several times now and is an absolute gem. He doesn't just do the easy jobs; he finds solutions to the difficult, non-obvious problems that others might miss. He is very hard working, incredibly friendly, great with pets, and always leaves the place better than he found it. 10/10! 
    • Here to add my voice to those praising Temi. She just painted my dilapidated home office in ED and did a fantastic job in just two days in a much lighter colour, including woodwork, damp blocker and filling holes. She's efficient, on time and I barely heard a peep out of her; she just got on with the job. I recommend her wholeheartedly. 
    • The residents & families of the estate are getting parking fines,  out of the blue , the residents parking system waa changed from Southern to Sippi with cameras put up in the car park and people issued with fines entering the estate for more then 10 minutes , families can no longer pick up or drop off family due to a new 10 minute wait fine. Residents are appealing with Sippi and Southern as there was no letters to consult of a parking change,  new waiting times or fines, delivery drivers are getting fines everyday,  if you get a fine,  appeal it, there is no signage up to say about parking fines or waiting time
    • Threads that devolve like this should be moved to the Lounge, so the 'comedy' can continue in an appropriate vacuum.
