Broadband ISP and mobile operator Virgin Media<\/a> and O2<\/a> (VNO2) have today boosted their existing \u00a3400,000 Tech Lending Community (TLC) scheme alongside environmental charity Hubbub<\/a>, which aims to provide hundreds of “second-hand<\/em>” tablet computers and smartphones to help people in need get online across the UK.<\/p>\n

The Tech Lending Community scheme, which was first established in 2022, aims to tackle digital exclusion and electronic waste by providing second-hand devices to people in need, while also giving tech a second life, preventing it ending up in landfill.<\/p>\n

NOTE:<\/strong> Since the launch of the TLC scheme, more than 750 people have been “loaned a tablet for up to six months<\/em>” at around 50 community centres, temporary accommodation, or refuge sites nationwide.<\/div>\n

As part of a new round of funding, homelessness charities, Centrepoint<\/a> and Thames Reach<\/a> will receive more than 500 tablets and smartphones, which will be powered by a free O2<\/a> mobile data (mobile broadband) allowance from the National Databank<\/a> project. The charities will distribute the devices via their services across the country so they can be loaned to those they support.<\/p>\n

In addition, funding and support will continue to be extended to Refuge<\/a>, a charity which supports women and children who have experienced domestic abuse (they last received 250 tablets from the initiative in 2022). The project is also being supported by Reconome, which has sourced, wiped, and refurbished the second-hand devices.<\/p>\n

Dana Haidan, Chief Sustainability Officer at VMO2, said: <\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cWe know that having data and devices can be a lifeline for people in need, enabling them to access essential websites, from applying for jobs, to accessing medical appointments, and to stay in touch with loved ones.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s why initiatives like The Tech Lending Community scheme and National Databank are vital in addressing digital exclusion and data poverty, and help to transform people\u2019s lives in communities across the UK.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Alex Robinson, CEO of Hubbub, said: <\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cThe Tech Lending Community (TLC), in partnership with Virgin Media<\/a> O2<\/a>, has shown us the tangible impact a second-hand device coupled with free connectivity can have on someone’s life. Beneficiaries of the project have been able to access job support and stay in touch with friends, things that those of us who own smart devices can take for granted.<\/p>\n

Hubbub is thrilled to be launching a second phase of TLC, working alongside homelessness charities Thames Reach and Centrepoint, and Refuge, a charity supporting women and children experiencing domestic violence, to provide an additional 520 tablets and smartphones for them to lend to their service users. We are proud to continue doing work to bridge the digital divide in the UK, whilst keeping tech in circulation for longer.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Just to be clear, the \u00a3400k being announced today is on top of the \u00a3400k that helped to launch these schemes a couple of years ago.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
