Due to your amazing efforts bringing in your old tech last May, we had a visit from Elaine from The Edinburgh Remakery yesterday to present us with an award for the Best Performing Tech Donation Box! Well done to all the recyclers who took part! #circulareconomy #recycle



Full interview with Edinburgh Remakery now up on our YouTube channel! 📺 In this clip, Elaine discusses why The Edinburgh Remakery started as a social enterprise 🌇 Captioned : youtu.be/tPx1Dg05f_Y Non-Captioned : youtu.be/7ZHl_J7W5tU


Fixing damaged or broken items like clothing or electronics cuts waste and saves money. To mark #CPW24 Acting Net Zero Secretary Gillian Martin visited Edinburgh Remakery a social enterprise which refurbishes donated computers and gifts 20% of these devices to people in need.



We’re thrilled to share that our Tech Donation Box has successfully completed its journey at George Heriot's 💚 Thanks to the amazing efforts of pupils, staff, and families, they collected 347 devices in just two weeks, saving them from landfill 💚



During #ChallengePovertyWeek, we welcomed Gillian Martin , Cabinet Secretary for Net Zero & Energy, to see our impact reducing e-waste & tackling digital exclusion. Inspired to share our mission, and we look forward to more work together to fight digital poverty! 💚

Last week, two officers had a great chat with our CEO, Elaine, about making NewKirkgate a safe space for all. They listened to our concerns & loved our work! Just like us, they've got old tech gathering dust and can’t wait to donate it to our Tech Donation Box! 💚 Police Scotland



Retro tech, sometimes called 'dumb tech' (not 'smart') has almost a detox allure. 💾 Tried out a slow game of Trivial Pursuit on this 1980s Amstrad - and talked with Elaine Brown from Edinburgh Remakery about how their auction has geek and planet appeal 🌎 heraldscotland.com/news/24988580.…



Girls were eager to learn crocheting 🧶 Thanks to Edinburgh Remakery for helping us achieve our goal. Girls were very motivated to learn. We started with the basics with hopes to make necklaces, bracelets and even animals in the future🐬 Partners YMCA🤝 #newskill #wellbeing
