Grandpal

Helping you be there for your older loved ones!

Grandpal helps you check in with your grandparents, parents or other people in your life who are getting on in age and provides more transparency for everyone involved in the caretaking process.

"Grandpal has been a lifeline for my mum."

Want to help out more? The smallest gesture can mean so much to other people, but it can be hard to know what to do, when do to it and to remember to do it in the first place.

Take action with Grandpal! We help you think of all the things you can do, from anywhere you might be. We'll then remind you to do them, and in some cases, even do them for you :)

Keeping connected from a distance

Connection is an essential type of care. Get to know interesting things about your Granny like what was her favourite subject in school? Does she remember any of her teachers? We'll give you great ideas for staying in touch that you can send as messages or ask on your next phone call.

Grandpal helps you remember to call more often, to send photos and to ask interesting and fun questions. These small actions go a long way in helping someone combat loneliness.

"Social distancing doesn't have to mean social isolation, and actually, one of the easiest things families and neighbours can do is call an older person in their lives."

By 2050 there will be over 2.1 billion people over the age of 60. Society is changing and ageing so fast that we must have the right skills to take better care of our older loved ones. Getting older is a learning curve like any other, and Grandpal is here to guide you through it all.

Helping you be there for older loved ones

Sometimes we forget to keep in touch or overthink what we can do for a loved one. Grandpal helps you not forget to check-in and gives tons of inspiration on conversational topics for healthy, meaningful relationships.
