When we heard that the tired old laptop at non-profit radio station Stafford FM was beginning to fail them and cause glitches, well, you know what happened next.

Hard to say what's useful without seeing it really. Chuck it our way anyway and anything we can't use goes to EEE4 (formerly CRC) -

I’ve got a couple of empty cases (well, one has an old motherboard) and one case with a phenom 4 CPU. No PSU, HDDs, etc

^^ definitely interested in those, we're currently building a gaming PC to raffle and the only missing element is the case, can you get them to one of our donation points? Stafford tip also take donations for us now but you can find all options here: www.freeitstafford.org/donate

Can do - or if you’re in the tech park before I manage to then you can also pop in to grab them

Due to unforeseen circumstances, our refurbished items will be collection only, we are unable to deliver equipment at present.
If we'd arranged to deliver to you, please bear with us and we'll be in touch to work it out.

With your help we've fixed up and rehomed 1,356 e-waste internet ready gadgets since January 2021

 

[FreeITstafford]

Here's one of the ways you can help our mission by pledging just £2.
Every PC we rehome is one saved from e-waste, one life changed, and one new opportunity created.

With your kind help we've fixed up and rehomed 1,388 e-waste internet ready gadgets since January 2021

Where did they go?

It's your kind donations that allowed us to spend £40 on these replacement parts which can now go on to restore two e-waste laptops and change two more lives.
We couldn't do any of this without you all

These are the organisations we (you) helped in just the last week.
They've either used the free equipment themselves, or passed it on to an individual or family they'd identified as being in digital poverty.

From what I can remember from youngests time at the place up at jnc 13, those used to end up there. Normally, either stripped of anything good, or had a spit n polish and sent to EBay.
So glad they're going somewhere usefull.

It's a familiar sight for most locals, but how many of you have spotted our whimsically-taped logo perched in the corner of that massive pink sign?

You can drop all sorts of donations to Rehome and Repurpose for Charities in Staffordshire on the site of the old Shoe Shed, and your recycling into the drop-boxes in the sheds in the rear car park.

If you've never been to take a look what goes on here in the absence of the footwear operation, what better time?

 

[FreeITstafford]

A huge milestone which we (you) can be utterly proud of.
Big thanks to our friends at Staffordshire County Council and their tireless family support teams for allowing us to reach so many needy families and individuals.
