Q My family and I have several laptops that are still working but no longer used. Is there an organisation that can refurbish them and donate them to a worthy cause?
Jules Parker, Bristol Yours says The #GiveALaptop campaign was started with the aim to help provide children having to learn remotely, with a device to do their work.
