Oliver became homeless after a back injury forced him out of work. Referred to Tech-Takeback by a local charity, we provided him with a laptop and Internet access. The charity helped him with digital skills training.
​
“My life just fell apart. I was a plasterer and I didn’t know how to do anything else. This laptop was a Godsend. I reconnected with my daughter, completed online training, and got a new job. I’m moving into a new flat tomorrow.

I’ll never forget what you did for me, and I wish I could thank the person who donated their laptop. They probaby saved my life and they’ll never know.”
