Operating for over 15 years, we have a rich history of supporting not only the community and voluntary sector but also social enterprises and small businesses and indeed many of the products within our portfolio have been designed and priced with these sectors in mind. It’s this experience and understanding and locally based IT Helpdesk which provides the foundation of what IT Services at CAS can offer.
CAS is a Suffolk-based charity and company with experience of providing IT and web services, as well as training advice and networking opportunities, to the voluntary and community sector. The onesuffolk service is a logical extension to the services we already offer and we believe their experience in serving local communities means that we are well placed to provide the best possible future for the service.
