Looking for Unused Tablets
Dear neighbours, I work for an organisation that does free training for businesses to empower frontline staff. I conduct some online activities (e.g. LNAAT and DISC) as part of the training, and this often means lugging 10-15 laptops from the office to the business workplace to get this done. As we rely on external funding it's a bit tough to requisition new equipment, so I am hoping to work around this by getting some long-forgotten tablets from you that might be lying around at home. As long as it can work, I will be able to use it since it's basically to connect to the internet and open the web browser. Also, I am happy to come into your workplace to conduct some training for you and your colleagues in return for your kindness.

Small rural drinking-water suppliers face a growing range of challenges and issues, the report says, including declining water quality in some regions due to intensive agriculture and fewer regulatory requirements.
