Story
With the world facing the biggest health crisis in our lifetime, it's sometimes hard to imagine how our small contributions can help.
At www.volunteertecharmy.org we are working with NHS Digital to provide a life-line for care home residents. We need to source 1,000 tablets with free video calling facilities for care homes, to enable residents to connect with their loved ones at this crucial time. A number of businesses have generously supplied free devices, but with many organisations struggling at this time, we still need more.
With this cause we are hoping to fund 50 devices at cost to help residents across 50 care homes.
Any donation is welcomed even if we don't reach the full target, and if you can help us in any way, please get in touch.
Thank you
