The service refurbishes donated computers and provides these to people with disabilities throughout New South Wales. There are currently over 1,200 clients, about half of whom live in regional NSW.
Computers allow people with disabilities to:
- access information and services
- communicate with other people
- develop skills for transitioning into the workforce
- improve cognitive and other skills
- live more independently
Volunteers refurbish computers and peripherals, install software and assist in installing computers in client's homes (service only available in Sydney). Ongoing technical support is provided during work hours.
Anyone with a disability or anyone in receipt of a Centrelink benefit is eligible to apply for a computer. There is no means test and no need for a referral.
There are two computer packages to choose from.
Once you have decided to purchase a computer, please fill in an application form.
