Hide AdManaging director John Cooke said: "We love our local suppliers and with most of our staff working from home that means we don’t need as many supplies.
"We don’t want them or their employees to suffer so we’ve decided we will continue to pay them for our normal level of service; but divert the supplies we would have used to our local charity, Helping Hands, so they can help those in our local community with the greatest need.
"It’s important that we all pull together to help one another in this time of need."
The company has also published a blog on its website offering "to help people weather the Covid-19 storm".

"If you could benefit from learning about how we’re successfully remote working, or if you have any ideas as to how we could help generally, please don't hesitate to get in touch."
"We’re just a small tech company but maybe we could offer a solution to a problem that you are experiencing as a result of Covid-19.
"We can certainly try."
