We’re calling on businesses to donate working laptops to Volunteering Matters. With your help, we can reduce costs and direct more funding towards vital projects that tackle social isolation, improve wellbeing, and support people to lead change.


At Volunteering Matters, we’re on a mission to build stronger, fairer communities across the UK through the power of volunteering. To help us do more, we’re asking businesses to consider donating surplus laptops to support our work.

By donating working laptops, you can help reduce our operational costs and ensure that more of our funding goes directly to vital community-led projects tackling social isolation, improving wellbeing, and supporting people to lead change.

  • Laptops less than 3 years old
  • Windows 11 compatible
  • Core i5 processor or higher
  • In good working order with power cables
  • We need 45 devices by August 2025

Your donation will make a real difference – allowing us to invest more into the people and places that need it most.

Interested in helping? Please contact us today to learn more or to arrange a donation.

Together, we can make technology work for communities.
