once
again, thanks for looking, Now please let me tell you a little about myself and why i have chosen to do this.
My name is John Judge and i have had a love for this technology since I owned my very first zx spectrum. Since then
this technology has just never ceased to amaze me, It is forever changing and you will always find something new to challenge
you within it, but since i worked for my local authority as a recycling officer i learned not just how much damage it could
do when dumped in landfill sites, But how when in the wrong hands people can steal your identity.
I became disabled after suffering a stroke but now have parkinsons disease and find i have time on my hands (lots
of it) i wondered how i could use this time and combine my interest with my concerns for the greater good, and green-machines
was my solution.
that was when not evryone had a pc, but now the problem has more than doubled
once
your old machine has undergone a total overhaul and service it is either completly recycled or all servicable parts are reused
in other machines to create working pc's or Laptops
We
are based In West London, But Collect from most areas for FREE.

WHO CAN APPLY FOR A RECYCLED GREEN MACHINE?
Individual applications
You must be elderly, disabled, house bound or a family with a child between the ages of 6 and 16 years old
and on a low income to qualify for these machines.
Suggested uses for machines,
LOW INCOME FAMILIES WITH CHILDREN AT SCHOOL
nowadays media is playing a major part in all of our lives but more importantly it is used in the education
of our children, therefore they are ideal for low income families with children at secondary school.
THE ELDERLY AND DISABLED AND HOUSEBOUND
the elderly and disabled are often housebound with no means of getting to the shops. these machines can give them
back independance and saves them venturing out into the scary world we now live in, and at the same time allowing them to
keep in contact with friend's, family and loved one's.
Community groups,Charity and Hospitals
Computers are a part of everyday life and a very expensive part too, Green Machines try to help as many
of the above listed good causes as we can. However we do not recieve machines in bulk as we cannot pay companies for these
because the project is strictly not for profit.
