Closing the digital divide in Tees Valley

04 Nov 2025

We’re proud to share that Triage has donated 15 laptops and a UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) to Furbd, an incredible organisation that refurbishes IT equipment to help bridge the digital divide across the Tees Valley.

These devices will go directly to residents who may not have access to technology - something many of us take for granted. Furbd’s work is vital in ensuring digital inclusion for all, and we’re honoured to support their mission.

A huge shoutout to Amy Crone, our Self-Employment Adviser, who has been the driving force behind these donations. 

“David and the team do incredible work, and they are so passionate about helping people. It has been a pleasure to give something back after they’ve supported so many of our participants. This is just the beginning; we plan on developing this relationship further as we continue to work together to recycle computer equipment."
