The campaign was set up by The Star, WANdisco and Learn Sheffield and is calling for businesses and individuals to donate unused laptops to help disadvantaged young people in Sheffield who currently have no access, so they can do their school work.

It is estimated that there are 11,000 children in Sheffield alone with no access to a device and this is causing many to fall behind with their education, especially as Covid-19 continues to cause disruption in schools.
