Good day to all our wonderful supporters.
Have you recently upgraded your mobile phone? Is your old handset put away gathering dust? Well please consider the following......
Recently, we have found ourselves in need of smartphones for vulnerable veterans. These devices are sometimes for individuals we are directly assisting, and other times for charities that support veterans through their peer support workers.
At times the first step towards breaking the trap of isolation is to provide the means of communication digitally which then can lead to the isolated veteran being able to become more aware of local peer support groups and charities.
Given that we are fortunate to have an independent mobile phone shop in Littlehampton, as detailed below:
Sussex Mobiles Ltd https://share.google/lvzmXoOs5z4FePveV
We have approached them, and they have graciously agreed to partner with us as a collection hub for your unwanted smartphones. We kindly request that you factory reset the handset and then take it to them on our behalf, ready to be issued to a veteran in need.
So, if you have recently replaced your smartphone and are considering donating it, please consider contributing the handset to the Arun Veterans LIVES Project via Sussex Mobiles.
That being said, if you are in need of some funds yourself, they do purchase smart phones in a similar manner to CEX and other online buyers. Therefore, please feel free to pursue that option if you are unable to donate your old smartphone.
Thank you all
