I've raised £25000 to help provide new laptops and devices for our students - to ensure they can access online learning and not miss out on their education.

What is #Laptops4Learners?
Laptops4Learners is a campaign run by Capital City College Group (CCCG) to help disadvantaged students learn online during and after the coronavirus pandemic.
With the UK heading back into recession and unemployment rising because of the Covid-19 crisis it is vital that college students do not miss out on their education.
We are asking for your help to raise £25,000 to buy laptops or tablets, so our students can study at home in lockdown, complete their course and progress in their education, whether that's to university, or their chosen career.
But the benefits to our students go beyond their time with us. The Government estimates that within the next 10 to 20 years, 90 per cent of jobs will need some sort of digital skills. So your generosity today will help us secure a young person’s future by giving them much-needed digital skills too.
Every pound we can raise will help us to help more students – either by paying for more data, or for a new or reconditioned device to get them online, For example, £200 will help us to buy a device for one student, £1,000 will support five people and £2,000 will support 10 students.
Pease spread the word and tell others about it on social media, using the hashtag #Laptops4Learners.
Thank you for your support.
