“Our computer has recently stopped working and my husband has got Parkinson’s, he used to love speaking with his family in Italy through skype. Now we have this new laptop we can connect with our family in Italy once again and also communicate see our friends and family.

Thank you so much for giving us this computer, it’s so kind.” Maria

“Thank you for the Laptop, the last one I had broke and the keys were coming off. I had it for a long time. Even though this is a terrible thing that’s happened, its nice how everybody has rallied around to help. It’s fine if you speak to one person a day, but if you go 4 days without speaking to someone you start to feel really isolated. It has really brought people together, I haven’t spoken to some people for 50yrs and we have started conversations on Facebook.” Nick
