We need your help! Do you have a spare tablet, laptop or computer lying around that you are able to lend for the next few weeks? Many of the kids in our programme don't have access to technology that will allow them to stay in contact with their mentors over the lockdown period. For many of them, this contact is essential, and will become even more important during this period of isolation. If you can help, please comment on this post or email Jess at [email protected] Thank you in advance!
