Laptops for schools

A project that was organised for a couple of years during the Pandemic


Rotary Laptop Project in conjunction with Diskings computer Company.

WE NEED YOUR LAPTOPS AND CHROMEBOOKS

All old data will be removed professionally and destroyed.

Due to the success of our recent laptop project it has been decided to continue while the need exists. By the end of March 2021 100 refurbished laptops have been distributed to local schools.

In these difficult times it is often hard to know how we as individuals can make a difference. Our young people will be affected by the impact of the covid 19 pandemic for decades and we believe that by giving them the best possible educational opportunities is one way of helping them to help themselves.

Please donate your spare Chromebooks.

Please donate Laptops with Windows 7 or higher operating system.

In both cases please include appropriate charging items

No Tablets or iPads, thank you.

Please include your name, address, and best contact number.

Please wipe personal items and place inside a plastic carrier bag.

Drop bag off at your nearest collection point.

1. Disking computers, unit 10, Beaver Industrial Estate, Liphook, GU30 7EU, phone first 01428 724727. Leave outside or in the porch, 9.00am - 5.00pm

2. Haslewey Community Centre(near Tesco, Haslemere) Box inside the front door. 8.30am - 6.00pm.

Why are we doing this??

Due to a world shortage of equipment and disrupted supply chains and despite the best efforts of schools and education authorities, many of our local children are still unable to access virtual schooling. Now that most exams are cancelled and grades being awarded by ongoing assessment this will leave many young people severely disadvantaged in preparing for work or realising their potential for further education.

Disking ltd. supported by the Rotary Club of Haslemere will prepare your spare machines and hand them over to the virtual schooling teams at Bohunt School Woolmer Hill School, with local primary schools also being supplied.To protect your data, hard drives will be removed and new digital systems fitted

Old drives may be returned to you or destroyed to IT industry standards
