TWENTY-eight Wharfedale households and organisations have donated 44 unwanted technical devices for redistribution to people across West Yorkshire who lacked digital access. This second device-collection and redistribution drive, which took place in January, has provided an ongoing supply of laptops, tablets and phones to enable children and adults to connect, work and learn by getting online. Climate Action Ilkley co-ordinated the tech collection in a Covid-safe manner, with pick-ups and drop-offs being made during daily exercise and shopping trips. The devices included 20 laptops, 12 tablets and two desktop computers, which were all taken to Hyde Park Book Club in Leeds for wiping by the volunteer technical team at Digital Access West Yorkshire. They have been redistributed by both them and their Bradford-based partners Solidaritech, to people or schools referred to them from across the two districts.
