	Over the Summer Holiday, we upgraded our phone system and now have about - at least - 70 Avaya IP Office phones of which we are about to throw away.

<p style="font-size:14px;">
	Before we do, are these of any use to anyone else? We have a mix of the ones with big screens, little screens and a couple of the reception addons for the side too.

	Collection from Northampton. Postage can be arranged pending me getting this approved by my exec team.

<span style="color:#333333">I also have a lot of teachers (read: all of them) with a little less ancient laptops which are extremely slow and most of them don't use them any more. Perhaps upgrading to SSDs might give them enough of a boost to start getting used again.</span></p><p> </p><p>
<span style="color:#333333">If you have any 6-7 year old laptops that you're looking to recycle or if you have any SSDs lying around unused, please consider donating them to a poor school. It will help us immensely.</span></p><p> </p><p>
<span style="color:#333333">Also, if you have any idea of companies that might be willing to donate to us Laptops/SSDs/APs please let me know.</span></p><p> </p><p>

I'm taking a bit of a step back from this for a couple of months due to how busy we are and how much I've got on otherwise.</p><p>
Please keep making use of this forum to keep working and useful kit in schools in the meantime; I'll try and make more of a push after Christmas, if all goes well. I'll happily help out with swaps etc until then but prefer not to get too directly involved; it's currently bringing too much responsibility in times where there's enough of that in our own establishment.</p><p>
Rest assured there's a good amount of people in Northants that don't want to see good stuff go to waste, so someone will always be happy to help.</p>]]></description><guid isPermaLink="false">93637</guid><pubDate>Fri, 21 Sep 2012 17:39:54 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>FREE TO A GOOD HOME - INTERACTIVE WHITEBOARDS</title><link>https://www.edugeek.net/forums/topic/93512-free-to-a-good-home-interactive-whiteboards/</link><description><![CDATA[<p>Hi All,</p><p> </p><p>
A school in Wellingborough has been entirely refitted, and the old building is being knocked down.</p><p>
They have a hoard of interactive whiteboards available. Mixture of 60" Smartboards and 72" Classboards all apparently in working order with relevant cables/adapters etc.</p><p>
Unfortunately there is one catch. It's being demolished - these MUST go by Friday. If they're not gone, they're thrown out.</p><p>
We'd love to be able to store them here however with short notice we're unlikely to get transport.</p><p> </p><p>
If you're interested and you can definitely get transport (trailer, van etc) here by Friday then as many or as few as you like are yours.</p><p> </p><p>
PM me for details.</p>]]></description><guid isPermaLink="false">93512</guid><pubDate>Wed, 19 Sep 2012 15:19:54 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[48&quot; Smartboards]]></title><link>https://www.edugeek.net/forums/topic/72815-48quot-smartboards/</link><description><![CDATA[<p>We have, on behalf of an infant school in Kettering:</p><p> </p><p>
8 x 48" Smartboards</p><p>

Pen trays are included and working.</p><p>
Some pens are missing but only a couple - replacements are easily available</p><p> </p><p>
Warning: Not all of these have USB cables, some of the serial cabled units had theirs buried into the school walls!</p><p> </p><p>
Part or full collection welcome. They will fit in the boot of a large sedan or estate with ease.</p><p>
Looking for about £80 per unit however the owner will consider offers for bulk purchase.</p>]]></description><guid isPermaLink="false">72815</guid><pubDate>Wed, 22 Jun 2011 15:00:40 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Dell Latitude Laptops - D810/410</title><link>https://www.edugeek.net/forums/topic/89921-dell-latitude-laptops-d810410/</link><description><![CDATA[<p>We have access to a batch of Dell Latitude D810/410 laptops in unknown condition (quite likely good though)</p><p>

The idea of this forum is to provide schools with a place to recycle their unwanted <abbr title="Information and Communications Technology">ICT</abbr> goods. You may already be aware of Freegle or Freecycle, and we will work on the same lines.</p><p> </p><p>
<strong>GUIDELINES:</strong></p><p> </p><p>
Select a prefix (see above the edit pane) appropriate to your post you are offering for free, for sale, or wanting particular items.</p><p> </p><p>
Please provide as much detail about the item, location (but this is a public forum, please do not provide information that will identify you publicly) and if you are giving it away to a good home, or want something in return whether its a swap for services or other hardware, or money.</p><p> </p><p>
For instance:</p><p> </p><p>
<strong>[OFFER] 5 x Computer Base Units - Wellingborough</strong></p><p>
(then in the post detail itself)</p><p> </p><p>
"We have for offer 5 computer base units with no monitors, keyboards or mice. They are Celeron 2.6Ghz with 512mb RAM, CD drives and are in full working order. They are free to a good school! They will be sent for recycling in mid August if noone wants them. Collection only please"</p><p> </p><p>
When an item is taken, please update the SAME thread with</p><p> </p><p>
<strong>[TAKEN] - All 5 units have now been taken.</strong></p><p>
You can be as informal as friendly as you like. We are all schools having the same difficulties with budgets so hopefully we can all help eachother out. Perhaps you might like to offer an incentive such as a training session on a <abbr title="Virtual Learning Environment">VLE</abbr> you have in place for someone who is looking at doing the same thing. </p><p> </p><p>
If you would like to partake in this venture, please register on Edugeek and private message me your email address. I will then add you to a mailing list, so when people post their need or offer of an item on here, you will be notified. You may not be able to private message straight away, in this case please post in this thread and I will contact you directly.</p><p> </p><p>
Of course any questions please feel free to do so in here.</p>]]></description><guid isPermaLink="false">72807</guid><pubDate>Wed, 22 Jun 2011 14:07:50 +0000</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
