Connect to Tech
If you think a device will help you to be more independent or connect you with the community but are unsure about the options, we are running a ‘Try before you buy’ scheme which allows clients and unpaid carers to try items such as phones, laptops, tablets and smart speakers for a period of time, so you can see what works best for you. We will work with you to identify a device to suit your needs, assist you to set it up and to purchase your chosen equipment after the trial period.
Contact: connecttotech@ruils.co.uk or call 020 8831 6088.
For details of other Connect to Tech schemes and technology support in the Borough, including training courses, workshops and peer support sessions, Richmond Aid website gives a full run down. RAID Connect to Tech
‘It’s easier to communicate online and it's helping me to study with support from Ruils’
‘It has improved my quality of life and made me feel less isolated’
'Ruils has helped me to be in contact with people. I have psoriatic arthritis, depression, social anxiety so I rarely go out or talk to anyone. The laptop has been extremely useful in getting jobs done and many other things on a daily basis'
