We love hearing what Community TechAid do - this is what they say:

“Our goal is to provide our community with the three fundamentals of digital inclusion: access to technology, connectivity and the knowledge and skills to access the online world. We gather donated laptops, tablets and smartphones, wipe the data and refurbish them, and return them to use by giving them to those in need.”

At ICEX GROUP, digital inclusion and equality have always been important to us. For our clients, we know that security and sustainability are also crucial. So, it seemed like a natural fit for us to support a charity that does good for people by helping achieve digital inclusion and digital equality. Our partnership with Community TechAid helps us deliver on our promise of being good for people, the planet and profit.

If you have laptops or any usable tech that’s not being used, please do consider donating to Community TechAid - see their website linked below - either direct or through us.

The team at ICEX GROUP are really pleased and honoured to also have Community TechAid helping us, as they love what we do for the planet. So this is a true partnership! This is a big deal for us as we want to help the world more. In addition, Community TechAid’s willingness to help us shows a great alignment of technology for good.

For more on what they’re about or if you have laptops or other usable tech that can be reused see Community TechAid's website here: https://www.communitytechaid.org.uk

We’d love to hear from you if you’d like to get involved with helping Community TechAid.

You can talk to either of us about how we can make good use of the IT assets your organisation is no longer using.

Community TechAid needs laptops, tablets and smartphones to give to people they help in their community. Either Community TechAid, or ICEX GROUP, will securely wipe the data and refurbish the kit, and then Community TechAid will give it to those in need.

However, if you have IT assets that Community TechAid can't use - like desktops, servers, and related networking - that’s where ICEX GROUP comes in.

ICEX GROUP supports IT departments in large organisations - head offices, hospitals, universities and government departments - by handling IT assets in a data-secure and environmentally positive way. Data security is vital for all our clients. ICEX GROUP manages data liability and data risk management. We securely destroy all data on your behalf.

We adhere to internationally accredited standards, such as the UK Government’s HMG Infosec 5 Higher Standard. We also adhere to the relevant ISO standards such as ISO 27001 (Information Security Management), ISO 14001 (Environmental Management) and ISO 9001 (Quality Management).

All of this protects your corporate reputation and your people.

And we can work together to decide how to reuse your IT assets in the best way possible. For example, you might choose to donate some of your stock of the laptops your organisation no longer needs (after secure data processing) to Community TechAid.

Also, depending on the quality and quantity of the equipment, clients can offset the cost of processing, or in many cases, receive a rebate in the form of cashback or a donation of some or all of the rebate to a charity such as Community TechAid. We can give you an estimate of the potential rebate after we have evaluated the assets you want us to process.

Some laptops you may choose to redeploy to other team members at your organisation. And some you may choose for ICEX GROUP to resell on your behalf to generate a rebate, which can contribute towards your IT budget.

Whatever you decide, we can handle the whole process from beginning to end.

Each case is different, and we will provide a bespoke solution that's right for your organisation and your ESG goals, by supporting Community TechAid. All with the peace of mind of the enterprise-class data security from ICEX GROUP.

We’d love to hear from you to discuss how we can work together to help Community TechAid.
