Delighted to announce we have been registered as a #charity under Digital Poverty UK with the UK Charity Commission. This means we can really get stuck into our work, including fundraising. Thanks to everyone who helped make it happen @RoystonVassey

#halfterm is a great time to hunt in cupboards and desks for unwanted #laptops and #tablets that could be used by schools to support socially socially disadvantaged #families. #digitalpoverty is a generational issue not just a #COVID19 problem. Please give what you can #recycling

This is real for us and our teen. It started out worrying, now I don’t mind saying that I’m scared and out of depth as a parent. theguardian.com/commentisfre…

Talk of extending the school day and covering it with volunteers?
I bet you wouldn’t have to use volunteers if you paid the teachers the extra hours.
Lawyers asked to take an extra cases to clear backlog wouldn’t do it for free.
Doctors taking on extra shifts would get paid.

No Isolation with AV1 allows pupils to have a presence in the classroom and feel integrated with their classmates. It also ensures that no child is forced to learn in isolation.
