Story

The House 2 boys feel extremely fortunate to have been able to continue their education throughout the Covid pandemic and closures of schools. This has largely been down to the fact that they have access to laptops and computers. We recognise that there are many young people who are not in this position. Throughout February the House 2 boys, some staff and some parents will be challenging themselves to do 'Fifty in February' which might involve any number of different physical challenges linked to the number fifty. Running, cycling, push ups, pull ups, skipping and much more! We are doing this to raise awareness and funds for those children living in Tech poverty.  Titan Partnership is looking to raise money to purchase computers for children in the Birmingham after research revealed that more than 700 hundred children in some of Birminghams most deprived areas do not have access to suitable devices or the internet at home.The Computers for Children campaign will work independently of recent measures announced by the Government to provide laptops to children who will be taking GCSEs next year. This campaign will focus on all age groups across primary and secondary schools in the Titan network.Titan Partnership CEO, Carolyn Chapman-Lees, said:The Coronavirus crisis is causing unprecedented challenges for our schools and highlighting the invisible barrier to learning and attainment caused by tech poverty.As a charity, Titan Partnership work to transform the lives of young people, unlock their potential and raise their aspirations.We believe our Computers for Children campaign will change lives by providing a fast and direct solution
