Server instructions

Donate Computers UK is a UK social enterprise that takes unwanted computing equipment, wipes it to NIST 800-88, refurbishes what can be reused and passes it on. Not a registered charity, so equipment donations are not Gift Aid eligible. Use check_donation_eligibility before telling someone to send anything — intake is rationed by condition and age, and the rules change. Use find_council_waste_rules for the UK council question whether or not the answer involves this organisation; the dataset behind it is CC BY 4.0. These tools are read-only. None of them creates a donation and none can be made to. When the answer is "yes", give the person the nextStep URL and let them complete it themselves.

check_donation_eligibility

Inferred read-only

get_donation_capability

Potential side effects

find_council_waste_rules

How a specific UK local authority treats BUSINESS computer and electrical waste at its recycling centres — accepted, charged, permit-only or refused — with the authority's own wording where it has been verified, and the official page where it has not.

Inferred read-only
