Helping each other
Isolating at home?
Our free App makes it easy to reach out and coordinate the help needed while isolating at home.
COVID SUPPORT
Help from friends and family can make all the difference
During this challenging time, friends, family and neighbours play an important supportive role.
Whether providing essential help such as meals, groceries or medications, emotional support such as regular phone calls, messages or through online games, or special treats such as cookies, cheese or chocolate, social support is a strong predictor of coping through isolation.
Make sure you and your community are supported during this time.
Use our simple app to identify and coordinate all of the help needed over the coming week/s so friends and family can provide meaningful support.
How Gather My Crew Works
Gather My Crew helps you bring together the people who care about you, and makes it easy for them to offer the right help at the right time.
Step 1: Start a Crew
Download the free app and create a private support crew. You can do this for yourself or for someone you’re helping.
Step 2: Answer a few simple questions
We’ll guide you through a few prompts to help you think about what kinds of help and care would really make a difference right now.
Step 3: Explore helpful content
Take a moment to read through our trusted tips and guidance. Whether you’re asking for help or offering it, we’ll help you feel confident and supported.
Step 4: Add some helpful tasks
Meals, school pickups, walking the dog, errands, emotional check-ins—whatever would lighten the load. Start small and build from there.
Step 5: Invite your people
Family, friends, neighbours, and colleagues can be invited to join your crew. They choose the tasks they can help with—no pressure, no confusion.
Step 6: Post a welcome message
Let your crew know you appreciate them being there. A simple message helps set the tone and brings everyone together.
Step 7: Track and coordinate with ease
Everyone can see what’s needed and who’s doing what—so nothing falls through the cracks and you don’t have to chase things up.
“Wednesday is my day off. So I’d be more than happy to walk the dog.”
“I’ll take Anna’s kids with mine to school. Easy since they’re so close by”
