Get Online @ Home is pleased to boast its innovative program that aims to recycle computers and bridge the digital divide.

Get Online @ Home is pleased to boast its innovative program that aims to recycle computers and bridge the digital divide, all while preserving the environment. Through this initiative, they are breathing new life into old computers through recycling and refurbishment, thereby minimising e-waste and making technology accessible to all. This program has been thoughtfully designed to create a sustainable solution to the modern-day challenge of e-waste, while also equipping those who have limited means with much-needed technology.

Electronic waste is becoming a major environmental hazard in the UK. According to a government report, almost 50 million tons of e-waste was produced globally in 2019 alone with the UK being the 2nd largest contributor. While being extremely harmful to the environment this waste can also cause serious health issues to all living organisms. However, this damage can be diminished through innovative tech recycling initiatives, such as Get Online @ Home.

Get Online @ Home is a Computer Recyclers UK initiative aimed at providing affordable access to technology and bridging the digital divide in the UK. The launch of their new website comes at a time when a significant number of people in the UK still lack access to computers and the internet, especially those in disadvantaged communities.

According to recent statistics, around 9% of UK households do not have access to a computer or the Internet. This digital divide is a major issue, given the increasing reliance on technology and online services in various aspects of daily life, including work, education, and healthcare.

Since its launch in 2010, Get Online @ Home has been providing refurbished computers to students, families, charities, local authorities, and social enterprise organisations across the UK. To date, the initiative has supplied over 150,000 computers to different groups of people, making a truly meaningful impact in the communities it serves.

They source computers from various trusted partners, including major corporations, to ensure that their products are of the highest quality. Their refurbishment process goes above and beyond, leaving no detail untouched to guarantee that each machine is fully functional and ready to use. Customers can have peace of mind knowing they're getting a top-of-the-line computer at an affordable price. Learn more about their refurbished computers here: https://www.getonlineathome.org/refurbished-desktop-computers/

What's more, they are currently offering a limited time only 10% discount code "GetOnline10" which is valid until August 31st, 2023. On top of this, all products include a 12-month warranty with telephone support & free UK delivery as standard. Warranties can be extended to 36 months. This is an excellent opportunity to get your hands on a high-quality refurbished computer at the most affordable price.
