Swarm ICT in Slough & Burnham
Based in Burnham. Patient tech help at home across South Bucks and Berkshire, and websites for local businesses.
My second base
I’m in Burnham regularly, not occasionally
Swarm ICT runs from two places. Corsham in Wiltshire is where the business started, and Burnham in Berkshire is where I spend the rest of my time, which means this area gets proper coverage rather than the odd trip down the M4.
The work here is the same: patient, unhurried technology help for people who’d rather ask a person than search the internet, and websites for small businesses that need to be found and believed.
If you’re arranging help for a parent who lives locally while you don’t, that’s a call I take often. Ring me and I’ll deal with you directly, and if they live somewhere else entirely, I can usually help them remotely instead.
“If it takes me five minutes, it’s on me.”
£50 an hour, no call-out fee, and no fix means no fee. Small jobs I don’t charge for at all. Nobody should be frightened of what a bill might say.

What I do here
Three things, all of them local
Tech help at home
Phones, tablets, laptops, smart TVs, wi-fi, printers, email, scam checks and video calls with the family. Explained properly, at your pace, with nothing rushed.
Clinics for retirement villages
I run a weekly resident tech clinic in Wiltshire for Rangeford Villages, and I’d happily run one here. If you manage a village or care home locally, let’s talk.
Websites for local business
Slough and the Thames Valley are competitive places to be a small business. A website that gets found and gets trusted is the difference.

One phone call, an honest answer, and a price agreed before I set off.
