Visitors

We host visits from all around the world for people to come to our facility and learn about computer recycling or to see how a successful social enterprise is run.

________________________________________________________________________

Many of them go on to start up similar social businesses in their own area or country. We do not charge for these visits but a donation to our charity is always welcomed. You can sometimes find funding for these visits as research trips. Here are a few who have visited us recently:

Visitors from Community Revival in Manchester

We had two visitors from a budding enterprise in Manchester and another from Inkraider who came to look around our facility with a view to joining our network (REI) Regional Electronics Initiative and learning more about recycling and refurbishing computers. They are currently recycling ink cartridges and are wanting to expand.

Thanks to Keith for spending time with us at Airedale Computing! He really helped myself and John from Recycle IT to get a clearer understanding of the process of running a successful computer recycling social enterprise. He answered all our questions in detail and was happy to give up the majority of his day to show us the whole system from start to finish".
