Our charity customers are the ones doing the real work, but we're proud to be helping.

In 2020 when we began adapting our software to help charities to reach older people, we thought it would just be temporary. It turns out we discovered a really effective way of facilitating social interaction, delivering stimulating content and reducing loneliness.

If you're a charity thinking about delivering services remotely to your beneficiaries in 2022, but don't know where to start, we'd be happy to help.

Who'd have thought yoga delivered over the telephone could be so effective, @sense did. Physical activity, mental health and community delivered to groups over the phone, fantastic work.

At the start of 2021 @Meetupcall worked with Alive Activities to investigate how a business teleconference service could be adapted to meet the needs of older people. Look what it developed into: buff.ly/3ovab1Y

If you're a charity taking part in the fantastic #1MillionMinutes campaign and want help on how to deliver your services remotely then please get in touch and we'll help.

Loneliness is as bad for long term health as smoking or obesity. But is surely a much simpler health problem to address. We're trying: buff.ly/3owXvI1

Great to receive this feedback. We're working hard to improve the accessibility and inclusivity of remote communications to those that will actually benefit from it the most..

For 12 years we worked on solving what now seems to be a silly problem. But it built the foundations for a service that is now delivering real social impact and helping to improve the lives of older people. We found our true purpose. buff.ly/3owXvI1

For charities running or thinking about running their own telephone befriending service. We're building a service that will enable you to do this in safe secure and sustainable way and would love to hear from you. buff.ly/3oyfM7Y

Loneliness is likely to increase your risk of death by 26% #Friday #Fact

By focussing on accessibility and inclusivity we've been able to help charities increase the reach of their remote services to those who need them the most.

No offence meant to law firms, we did our best at connecting your conference calls reliably. But working on building technology to improve the lives of older people is far more fulfilling!

Somebody who is over-65 is 3.5 times more likely to be admitted to local authority funded care if they are lonely. #Friday #Fact

Woking closely with @independentage has really allowed us to develop our software to meet the complex accessibility needs of older people and build a truly inclusive platform for delivering services remotely.

It's strange how things work out. What started as lending a hand to charities during lockdown has developed into a truly effective and sustainable way of delivering services to older people. [buff.ly/31JWyTW](buff.ly/31JWyTW)

There are 1.4m chronically lonely older people in England. What a depressing #friday #fact

For charity services designed during the COVID crisis safeguarding was not the major consideration. As we transition to long-term sustainable remote and digital services it's important to re-assess that risk. Here are our thoughts: meetupcall.com/telephone-befr…
