How it works

Call&Check enables people to live independently and confidently in their own homes for as long as possible.

Our award-winning service starts with a friendly, trusted face at the door asking, “Hello, how are you today?” As part of the conversation, they’ll ask some short questions to find out if any support or help is needed.

The Call&Check support team immediately pick up these requests via our IT system and jump into action. They work with trusted contacts such as close family members or a GP, or anyone else nominated to give support.

Services include organising home grocery and prescription deliveries, arranging transport to appointments at the hospital and Call&Check members are also invited to regular social events to get together with friends and meet new people over a cup of tea and a cake.

Who can use Call&Check?

Anyone who would like a bit of support to confidently live independently at home.

What people think

It makes me feel so much better knowing that I get my postie’s friendly call to check on me three times a week

Amy, 82, living at home

I am an independent person but I look forward to my Call & Check visit

Derek, 90, Call&Check customer

Knowing my mum gets checked on every day during the week takes some of the pressure off my wife and I, and gives us additional peace of mind

Mike, son of Call&Check customer

I have a degenerative visual impairment, so I cannot drive and find it difficult to get out of the house alone. Before Call&Check, I struggled to get to the shops. Now it has been arranged for me to have my shopping delivered weekly

Alice, Call&Check customer

One of the ladies I visit was in a panic one day as her son had not been answering  his phone. Her level of distress led me to investigate the situation further; it turned out she’d been dialling the wrong number. She is now back in touch with him and her mind is at ease

Call&Check as a solution for Isolation and Loneliness during COVID in a major IBM article

The Call&Check service has been referenced as a solution in the fight against the isolation and loneliness issues which have been occurring in increasing numbers during the age of COVID19. Research from the IBM Institute for Business Value has found that loneliness is almost always triggered by some form of loss, whether at a personal or societal level. While the original research looked at the ageing population, the IBM team have explored how COVID-19 exacerbates loneliness and extends the issue across all age groups. The Call&Check system assists individuals by asking questions and assisting with key actions such as home deliveries (e.g. grocery and medicines) enabling vulnerable people to maintain social distancing and to shield safely. During the pandemic, the program has been adapted leveraging the telephone for daily virtual visits and sharing the information with authorised caregivers.
