Laptops donated to local schoolchildren

Arsenal in the Community are set to donate 250 laptops to local schoolchildren in a bid to combat the growing issue of digital poverty.

The digital exclusion of some of the UK's most vulnerable during the COVID-19 crisis has not only impacted the academic development of students, but also the mental health of those unable to keep in contact with friends and family.

Having identified this issue, Arsenal in the Community have worked with club partner Intel and Computer Disposals Limited to provide 250 reconditioned laptops which will be gifted to local schoolchildren over the coming weeks.
