Story

The Harrow Club have sent out an appeal for laptops to support their young people with online learning. 

We received the following message from them:

"Over the last week we have also identified a further 36 young people in households where many siblings are sharing one device, making home learning virtually impossible.   

One young person’s situation:
“I come from a big family and we share a 3-bedroom flat. We have one tablet that I have to share with my sisters and we all need to be online at the same time. I’m using my phone when I can to join lessons…but I can’t see the work …so I don’t do it… I’m finding it really hard, I’m bored all the time, and getting in trouble.  If I had a laptop I would share it with (one of) my sisters.” Harrow Club Senior member
 
We are therefore looking to raise funds for an additional 36 laptops, which would be loaned out to these families and would very much welcome any contribution that you can make to help us reach our target. "

Anything you can offer to help will be greatly appreciated. If you have a laptop you would like to donate instead, please contact Miss O'Connor at k.oconnor@nhehs.gdst.net
