Love thy Penistone

If you have any old computer equipment- laptops/tablets etc to donate to local schools, then you can drop it off to us at Penistone Leisure Centre on Thursday between 12-4:30pm or Friday between 10am-12noon.

As part of Love Thy Penistone we’re happy to act as a collection point for equipment and will take it to local schools to be used by students who are working from home and may not have access to the equipment that they need to learn effectively.

So far we have heard back from Penistone Grammar School and St Johns Juniors to say that they are interested in receiving computer donations. If you are aware of any other local schools that would like to receive donations, please let us know and we’ll distribute what we have had donated equally between them.

We have someone available to wipe the computers clean too, so you don’t need to worry if you aren’t able to reset them!

If you are vulnerable, shielding or isolating, please don’t forget that you can access help from community volunteers via Love Thy Penistone.

Love Thy Penistone was set up in the first lockdown to allow our community to support each other at this difficult time! We still have plenty of volunteers lined up to assist if they are needed. Some of our volunteers from the Leisure Centre were involved in the set up of this project, and many more have volunteered their

So if you need some shopping, or a prescription fetching, or pairing up with someone friendly for a chat, then please do get in touch to ask for help via the website or on 01226 337400.

Or alternatively, if you would like to volunteer to help someone in our community, then please sign up here.
