I-Can: Ivers Community Action Network Ltd


I-Can is an FCA registered mutual benefits society.

We set up our Lend-A -Laptop scheme mid Covid lockdown 2020 up-cycling donated laptops via local schools and college to homeworking students otherwise digitally excluded.


We're seeking to extend this to local 16-24 year olds that have had their education or work experience disrupted.


In January 2022 we are signed up with a Local Youth Centre to set up an IT focused project including how to strip dowm and repair laptops
