The ITSA Digital Trust
With grateful thanks to the Summerfield Trust for their generous support of our Gloucestershire Digital Inclusion Programme. Over the past six years, The ITSA Digital Trust has helped more than 40,000 vulnerable and low-income community members access technology in areas of high digital deprivation. Our Programme continues this work by refurbishing and redistributing donated laptops each year to disadvantaged individuals and community groups.
Underserved communities’ benefit through greater access to technology together with enhanced confidence, educational opportunities and social inclusion. We are also protecting the environment by reducing e-waste through sustainable IT reuse.
