London, UK – SocialBox.Biz, a Community Interest Company, has launched its 2025 campaign with a call to UK businesses and universities to donate old but usable laptops instead of recycling them. The initiative, titled “Reuse Before Recycle Campaign: SocialBox.Biz Offers Sustainable Alternative To Computer Disposal in London”, aims to support digital inclusion in London, reduce e-rubbish, and create social impact.
According to the UN Global E-waste Monitor, global e-rubbish is expected to reach a staggering 82 million tonnes by 2030. In light of this, SocialBox.Biz is championing a smarter and more sustainable approach to IT disposal by prioritizing the reuse of usable devices before they end up in landfills. This not only reduces the e-rubbish mountain but also supports disadvantaged individuals and communities.
The campaign encourages businesses and universities to donate their old laptops, especially Apple MacBooks, to SocialBox.Biz instead of recycling them. The donated devices are then securely data wiped and upgraded with open-source software, making them ready for reuse. This not only provides access to technology for those who cannot afford it but also contributes to the reduction of Scope 3 emissions for participating organizations.
In addition to promoting digital inclusion, SocialBox.Biz is also providing training programs for disadvantaged individuals and partnering with charity groups like C4WS Homeless Project and Age UK London. One inspiring story is that of DJ Yordi, a refugee who launched a successful music career with a donated MacBook. “It opened doors I never imagined,” Yordi reflects.
Peter Paduh, the founder of SocialBox.Biz, emphasizes the importance of donating over recycling, stating, “Recycling is a start, but donating is a revolution.” The campaign aims to secure 500 additional donations this year and has already garnered support from major partners. To assist businesses and universities in shifting towards sustainable donation practices, SocialBox.Biz has also released a comprehensive guide.
To join the movement, interested parties can contact SocialBox.Biz at 0843 289 5722 or visit their website to donate laptops for charity in the UK. Furthermore, the company is also accepting Apple products for eco-friendly laptop disposal in London.
For more information on the impact of digital inclusion and the benefits of donating over recycling, individuals can explore the resources available on SocialBox.Biz’s website, including a campaign guide and impact stories.
By donating instead of recycling old laptops, UK corporations, businesses, and universities can make a lasting social impact, cut Scope 3 emissions, and advance their corporate ESG goals. With the support of major partners and inspiring impact stories emerging nationwide, SocialBox.Biz’s 2025 campaign offers a powerful solution for organizations to turn their IT refresh cycles into long-term social good.
