Very few carers get any of the help mentioned in legislation. Contrary to what professionals think, we did not choose to become carers- our hearts and consciences would not allow us to do otherwise.
Many carers face fear and isolation on becoming a carer, but when they are given the chance to own a computer and to access the world wide web, it can open up a window to the outside world.
Our mission is to help carers across the UK and we do this as carers or ex carers, our committee members give their time freely to help other carers. If we didn't campaign for free laptops many carer's wouldn't have access to the outside world whilst we wait for the Government to listen to carers.
If you are a company and feel you can donate laptops for carers, then please get in touch and we will get back to you.
Chill4us is a 'non profit' organization with a constitution, a small management committee and a bank account.
The laptops must be in working order and at least with Windows XP.
Take a look at our testimonials to read how much the computers already sent out have meant to carers.
Please get in touch if you can help.
If you are a carer and would like to put your name down for one, then please register on our forum.
