Gather My Crew helps you turn offers of “Let me know if there’s anything I can do” into useful, practical support from the people who already care about you.
We know that asking can feel uncomfortable, even when people want to help.
Our resources make those conversations easier.
You’ll find simple phrases to use, printable conversation prompts, and gentle ways to accept help without guilt or awkwardness.
It’s not always obvious what would make life easier.
We help you identify the small things that make a big difference, from errands to school runs, from mowing the lawn to emotional check-ins.
Our printable ‘Small Things That Would Help’ list will help you figure out where you need support most.
The free Gather My Crew app is the easiest way to coordinate practical help without messy group chats, awkward asks, or trying to remember who can do what, when.
It’s free, private and trusted by health professionals across Australia.
Asking for and accepting help doesn’t make you weak. It makes you a leader, reassuring others that it’s okay for them to ask for help if they ever need it.
And it gives your community a chance to show up for you in meaningful ways. People love to help!
Yes absolutely.
The app is designed to be simple and intuitive, even if you’re not confident with tech. And if you get stuck, our Help Desk is staffed by real people, ready to guide you through it step by step.
Even a small crew can make a big difference.
Some of our strongest Crews only have a handful of people, close friends, a neighbour, or family. If you’d like to widen your circle, our resources include ideas for where to find more support in your local community.
No. You’re not bothering anyone, you’re giving them a chance to do what they do best: help, care, and feel useful.
Our guidance and resources include gentle ways to ask for and accept help, so it feels natural for everyone involved.
People are more likely to say yes when it’s clear what they’re being asked to do, and when it’s easy for them to do it.
The Gather My Crew app helps by breaking support into clear, practical tasks, and our free resources offer guidance on how to ask in ways that make it easier for people to step in.
Start small.
The key is to make tasks easy to say yes to. One meal, one lift, one small errand. Once people understand what’s needed, they’re usually quick to step up.
Our in-app guidance includes tips on how to list tasks so that they’re easy to say yes to, so everyone feels comfortable helping.
Yes, completely.
Your details are stored securely in Australia and are never shared or sold.
Gather My Crew is private by design. You choose who’s in your Crew and what they can see.
You can also use our Inner Circle feature to keep sensitive updates or personal tasks just between your closest people, while leaving everyday jobs (like meals or errands) visible to the wider crew.
Anyone you trust. Usually it’s family, friends, neighbours, colleagues, community members.
If you’re short on people, check out our list of local community ideas to help you connect with others.
Our Help Desk is run by real people, not bots.
