Activities
'It carries out activities or services itself'
'the advancement of education','the relief of those in need by reason of age, ill-health, disability, financial hardship or other disadvantage'
Our project provides preparation for work for people with additional educational needs (trainees). We work with people of all ages developing both soft and hard skills our trainees need in life and to enter the workforce. Input takes donated unwanted used/faulty devices and the trainees refurbish these with new software and hardware upgrades. These devices are then given out within the local community. The trainees also support these devices and the users with drop-in sessions open to the public.
