Hi Joe,

We have purchased on average 300 keyboards a year over the last 3 years. 
Prior to this is was approximately 150 per year.  The recent increase is
due to an increased number of IT users and remote workers from the
pandemic. 

Hope this helps.  

Hazel Lunn
Technology Business Partner 
Luton Council.

Dear Luton Borough Council,

I'd like to know how many computer keyboards LBC has purchased in the last
ten years. (or until records begin, whichever is the smaller)

Estimates to the nearest ten or so are fine. I'm not particularly
interested in specialist keyboards for accessibility or for special jobs
(i.e. attached to point of sale devices), but I also don't mind if they
are included. I'm just looking to get a rough number of the bog-standard
office keyboards bought over the last ten years. Ideally broken down by
year, but I'm easy going.

Yours faithfully,

Joe
