About Pass IT On
Pass IT On is an Edinburgh charity founded in 2002. It takes in good-quality laptops, desktops, tablets and monitors from individuals, schools and companies, wipes drives with certified software (destroying any that fail), PAT tests the equipment and customises it for clients with disabilities or long-term health conditions, who receive it free. Some refurbished PCs are also sold.
After twenty years at Wardie Avenue it has left its premises and is looking for new ones, collecting donations directly from donors in the meantime.
