To celebrate this year’s Great Big Green Week, we want to help keep everyone’s IT running smoothly and ensure no older devices are going to waste, passing them on to people who need them.
On Monday 10th and Thursday 13th June, 12-6pm, we’ll have digital volunteers on-site with us at the Library of Things to help with any queries and accept donations for people in need.
We’re here to help
Does your laptop / tablet / phone need a bit of love? We can help iron out software niggles or simple hardware fixes, or advise on best approaches for more complicated repairs.
Are you ready to pass it on? We’re always grateful for donations of laptops, tablets or phones to Getting Oxfordshire Online, which we accept whenever we’re open. On “tech rescue” days, we’ll have people on-hand to help with donation: maybe helping get photos off your laptop, resetting your phone ready for re-use or checking damage to see if we’ll be able to wipe and use your device.
Yes, I’ve got a tech query!
If you have a device or question you’d like help with, please drop us an email at hello@shareoxford.org with a little detail (what device you have, what the problem is and when would suit you to come in). We’ll let you know how busy the days are looking and make sure we have enough volunteers on-hand, and we will try to arrange some useful spares and tools.
You’re also welcome to just drop in on the day with your kit if you don’t mind grabbing a cuppa and waiting for someone to be available to give you a hand.
Can I lend my tech skills?
If you’re comfy fixing IT or helping people use it, and you’d like to join to help out on the day, we’d love to hear from you. Give Ben a shout at hello@shareoxford.org!
