Belfast City Council | Reuse IT scheme is making its mark back in the community

Donated tablets and laptops no longer in use collected at Ormeau Household Recycling Centre have been refurbished and redistributed to groups across ACR+ member Belfast, through the Reuse IT scheme. Fifteen devices were refurbished in phase 1 of the scheme and have been delivered to the Belfast Intercultural Romanian Community and the Conway Education Centre for use by the after-school club working with refugees and asylum seekers. The city council is working in partnership with Ignite IT. If a device is suitable for reuse, Ignite IT repairs or replaces parts, wipes all personal data from hard drives and install new software. If a device is not suitable for reuse, it will be recycled instead.
