With schools now closed again, there are many pupils without the technology they need to be able to carry out remote schooling from home. The BBC launched a campaign earlier this year asking for laptop donations for students who need them for online learning. Roadmap IT are working with the Copperfield Academy in Gravesend, Kent to try and help ensure every child at their school has the ability to continue their schooling from home. There are 130 families who need our help and we think with your help we can really make a difference.
How can you help.
We need your old laptops, computers or iPads. The one’s that are in your store room, cupboard or at home that you upgraded years ago and have probably forgotten about.
What do we need:
Any Mac or PC that can run MacOS 10.11 or Windows 7 and above or an iOS device running iOS 11 or up. Generally speaking devices from 2007 upwards will most likely qualify.
If you are unsure then please call or send us an email and we will help you identify if the device is suitable or not.

How we will help.
Roadmap IT will ensure all the devices are securely erased and are working before they are supplied to the school. We can provide certifications for businesses who have compliance needs to record the data sanitisation.
Each device we refurbish and supply to the school will make a huge difference to the family who receives it. Recycling your computer equipment is also good for the environment and sustainability.
Thank you from everyone at Roadmap and Copperfield Academy!
