At Takk, we believe in taking concrete steps to support the causes we care about. That's why we introduced the +1 program. It's a simple yet powerful concept: for every donation our team members make to a charity, Takk matches it. This initiative is our way of putting our commitment into practice, not just in words but in actual actions. In 2023, we doubled the impact on 14 different charities through this program. It's a small step, but one we're proud of. We also hope it might inspire other companies to consider similar initiatives! Collectively, we can make a significant difference. #nonprofitfundraising #corporateresponsibility

Something I've learned since getting involved in the field of sustainability for the tech sector is that it's a relatively small community and networking is invaluable as you're never more than a couple of people away from someone who knows something or someone that will help. I was speaking at an event with my good friend Richard Kenny, CEO of Interact, the other week and we got talking about The Circular Mile and how some of our ITAD partners who are charities are having to pay full price for spare parts and can't afford the accredited secure erasure software that their commercial counterparts use. One of our partners literally has shelves of devices that are just waiting for parts that they don't have the money to buy. Rich told me that Interact provide their Cedar Enterprise erasure software for free to qualifying charities! It is ADISA accredited, which is the industry standard for security and provides reassurance to companies donating devices that their data will be properly handled and sanitised. I was also chatting earlier this week to Kevin Towers, Chairman of Techbuyer, and Ross Cockburn from Reusing IT, and found out about amazing work they are doing to provide (REALLY) low cost laptops to families on benefits, and ways charity ITADs can obtain low cost new and refurbished spare parts. Today, I've got an email from Nick Hayhurst with information about Cedar software and he's also been in touch with one of our charity ITAD partners! At our last Circular Mile partner meeting, George Cook from Computers 4 Charity told us about how - through being involved with the Circular Mile - he was able to connect with another one of our ITAD partners who operate a social enterprise and offer them free use of software that Computers 4 Charity developed in house. The one thing I keep harping on about is the critical importance of us all working together to achieve the same goals, and it's great to see these alliances coming to fruition. Watch this space as I see an opportunity for The Circular Mile to bridge this gap for charity ITADs across the country. If we can lower costs for parts and software, more devices can be refurbished and put in the hands of people who need them. #itsustainability #techforgood #charityITAD #ITAssetRenewal #Reuse #Repurpose #Refurbish #Remanufacture #TheSocialValueChain
