How to access the Shape the Future programme
Contact the Hwb Service Desk (support@hwbcymru.net or call 03000 25 25 25) to get the Letter of eligibility (LOE) number. You need this number to get the appropriate discounts, so get the number before asking for quotes from your device manufacturer.
The Welsh Government has secured a central letter of eligibility for all schools in Wales to access these discounted education devices. School eligibility will be validated against a Welsh Government maintained school list.
