Use Your Excess Tech for Social Good
Use your excess technology — from laptops and hand-held devices, through to server and networking equipment — to make a real difference in Cambridgeshire through Cambridge Online & our partner, Sustainable Tech 4 Good. The process is easy and we handle everything for you.
Your Excess Tech Can Change Lives
Millions of people in the UK are digitally excluded — unable to access the internet, apply for jobs, manage their health, or stay in touch with loved ones. Many simply cannot afford a device.
When you have your excess tech handled through our solution, our partner, Sustainable Tech 4 Good, will securely erase all data-bearing devices to HMG Infosec 5 Enhanced (Department of Defence 5220.22-M). Your tech is then refurbished and made available to help people in need with digital inclusion, while preventing e-waste.
Sustainable Tech 4 Good has a proven track record of working with businesses to reuse their tech for social good, while increasing sustainability.

How Donating Works
We make it as easy as possible. Just three simple steps.
Arrange Collection or Drop Off
The team will work with you to arrange a free collection, or you can drop off in person with Cambridge Online at Allia Future Business Centre.
For mobile phones, you can also use our Drop-Box scheme, with a variety of locations available in the Cambridge region.
We Refurbish & Redistribute
Sustainable Tech 4 Good will securely data-erase, repair & refurbish your tech, and we ensure devices reach the people in our community who need them most.
Excess Tech Post-Upgrade?
Sustainable Tech 4 Good’s cost-neutral solution and your organisation's excess tech post-upgrade can help address digital inclusion.
Your legacy devices, once through the HMG-enhanced data-secure refurbishment process, are made available to support a wide demographic of need across Cambridgeshire.
Sustainable Tech 4 Good can also purchase from you any tech that still holds value. After refurbishment, it is sold through Tech4Change.co.uk — their online store, offering affordable, sustainable technology, with proceeds funding further device donations.
With everything handled, from collection and audit to fully-certified data destruction and refurbishment, your excess tech supports digital inclusion across Cambridgeshire while helping reduce e-waste through sustainable reuse.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is my data safe when I donate a device?
Absolutely. Every device we receive is professionally data-erased by our specialist data services partner, Sustainable Tech 4 Good, to HMG Infosec 5 Enhanced (Department of Defence 5220.22-M) standard before any refurbishment begins. For business donations, you’ll receive a full audit report and certificate of data erasure. You can also factory-reset your device before donating if you prefer.
