Device Donation for Ukrainian Refugees

Oxford Diocese are partnering with Getting Oxfordshire Online, SOFEA, ASPIRE and Bicester Green to take electronic devices which are no longer required by their owners, wipe them of any personal data and repurpose them and provide them (with data and training) to people who desperately need them.  

We think it is fantastic project which helps people protect their personal data and provides devices for Ukrainian refugees and others who desperately need them.

Do you (or the organisation you work for) have any devices that might be suitable that you would be willing to give to this project?  If so please check that they are the sort of device we are looking for:

·       Laptops up to 12 years old (High-spec Windows Vista, any Windows 7 or later, and all “unibody” macs)

·       Tablets up to 10 years old

·       Phones up to 6 years old (iPhone 5S or later)

·       Minor faults (failed disks, broken keyboards, missing chargers etc) can be repaired

If you would like to donate any device to help a child or family currently living in the UK then please do drop in off at The Vicarage, Upper Basildon by the end of August. Thank you.
