JOBLESS students in Chesham have been given a boost after a local firm gave them a personal computer to improve their facilities.
Chesham-based charity Scout Enterprises works to get unemployed information technology trainees back into work.
The group, which has a workshop in the White Hill Centre, White Hill, has had to rely on ageing and low-specification computer equipment.
But following an SOS from students, bosses at Nycomed Amersham, in White Lion Road, Little Chalfont, stumped up a PC the company no longer needed for the charity.
Delighted Vincent Wiacek, Scout Enterprises tutor, said: "This is more than welcome because we are dependent on the good will of others."
Scout Enterprises is a national charity with branches all over the UK.
The Chesham branch meets five days a week and helps more than 12 trainees at a time teaching them about office technology.
Anyone with computer equipment going spare should call Chesham Scout Enterprises group on (01494) 793745
