How and why this is sustainable
By repurposing old staff laptops instead of disposing of them, we’re:
- Reducing waste and preventing electronic items from going to landfill
- Lowering our environmental footprint through reuse and recycling
- Maximising value from existing resources to benefit our communities
This circular approach means every laptop has a longer life and a bigger positive impact, for both residents and the planet.
