A town council will be holding a donation point for digital equipment in an attempt to help people reduce their waste.

Wallingford Town Council will run a donation point in the town hall as part of its ‘Getting Oxfordshire online’ series on Monday, January 30.

The series aims to address the needs of thousands of people across the county who are not online, by refurbishing donated devices and passing them to people who need them.

The donation point will be open from 11am to 2pm in Wallingford Town Hall.

This project was initiated by Oxfordshire Community Foundation, and received seed funding from Our Common Good and Oxfordshire County Council.
