Having reliable and efficient technology at your disposal is extremely important for all charities. Technology helps to promote your cause, collect donations and make plans for future fundraising.
If your team is using old, outdated technology that is frustrating to use, this can make it difficult to complete simple tasks and efficiently raise money for your dedicated cause. At Hardware Associates, we work closely with charities across the UK to provide you with reliable and extremely affordable technology that will aid you in your fundraising and awareness campaigns for your charitable cause.
Find out more about our work with charities below and get in touch if you have any questions about our refurbished computer services.
Our services
With over 20 years of experience in the refurbished technology industry, we’re perfectly placed to help your charity get the right computers, laptops and other equipment to ensure you can do your work easily and efficiently.
Our services for charities include:
- Reduced rates on refurbished laptops, computers and tablets
- A bespoke solution based on your needs
- Supply of all refurbished technology, plus delivery straight to your offices
- Free one year warranty on all refurbished desktops, laptops and tablets
- Repairs service
- Resale scheme of outdated computers
Our work with charities has allowed us to provide high quality IT equipment to a range of organisations for excellent value for money, with some charities able to save up to 80% of the cost versus brand new counterparts. This frees up money to be invested into your charitable cause.
Charity resale scheme
As well as offering reduced prices on refurbished computers for charities, we’re also proud to offer a special resale scheme that sees all profits donated back into the charity itself.
We’ll look at your outdated tech, take it away and upgrade and update it ready for sale. We’ll also remove any data and ensure the computer itself is as good as new. Once we’ve sold this computer on, we’ll donate all of the profits back into your charity for you to use as you wish to support your cause.
Warranties and our Q20 promise
All of our refurbished desktops, laptops and tablets are refurbished to the very highest standards, with all tech being grade A or B quality. This means that they have minimal scratches and superficial marks, and can look as good as new.
We also put all computers through a rigorous testing process that sees the following types of checks undertaken:
- Physical checks such as cleaning, replacement of any plastics and latches and assessment of all ports
- Diagnostic software checks such as CPU testing, motherboard testing and RAM testing
- BIOS checks (Basic Input/Output System)
As all of our refurbished solutions are refurbished to the highest standards, we’re able to offer a one year warranty on all computers, laptops and tablets. This gives you peace of mind that in the unlikely event something isn’t quite right, we’ll sort it for you.
Payment plans for charities
If your charity is not able to find the funds to replace all of its computers at once, we’re able to offer a reliable and secure finance solution that will allow you to better control your budget for the year.
Provided by MoneySphere and adhering to all regulations and Government guidelines, you’re able to quickly and easily replace old outdated computers with newer refurbished options, without putting a strain on your charity and its yearly budget.

Our work with leading charity, The NSPCC
