Give Help
Every now and then, we all need a little help
When that person is somebody we care about, we’re eager to lend a hand. If that’s you, our app and Help Literacy resources can offer new ways to provide meaningful support.

Introduction
We want to help, but don’t know what to do
Seeing someone that’s important to us experiences illness, an accident, a death, relationship breakdowns or similar can be heartbreaking. We want to help, but our thoughts can get in the way.
Fears and misconceptions are just that. And with the right tools and resources, we’ll show you how to overcome these concerns.
It’s our goal to normalise the act of helping and to empower the community with new ways and educational resources to care for others.
Help Technology
The right help at the right time makes all the difference
Our app helps coordinate the support of friends and family.
As the nominated App Captain, you’re willing to manage the app for your loved one needing support and this is a very trusted, important role towards their recovery. It’s also very simple to use and update information for your Crew Members.
How an App Captain helps
It’s common to feel overwhelmed during hardship. This is the reason why 80% of users enlist a family member or close friend to help set up the app.
Gather your Crew
Invite people to join your Crew. Think of friends, family and anyone who’s offered to help. You can use mobile numbers or phone contacts to send an SMS invite.
Identify help opportunities
If the person you’re assisting is overwhelmed, it’s likely they’ll struggle to think of what others should do to help. Our handy 1 minute questionnaire can make it a little easier. We’ll use the answers to build a list of common help requests, all saved in the Help List.
Shared calendar
The description, date and time for new tasks will be added to the shared calendar and published task list.
Create tasks
To request help, create a task. You can start with a suggestion from the Help List. Or create your own.

“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”
Many hands make light work
Using our innovative platform, thousands of everyday people have worked together to support one another. Building a community of kindness to provide sustainable support that meets the needs of those they care about.
Join a Crew
A friend or family member (the App Captain) has told you about Gather My Crew. They have set up a Crew for someone close to you.
Accept invitation
To join their Crew, you must first receive an SMS invitation. To accept, download the app and create an account.
Help is requested by tasks
The App Captain and the person receiving support request help by adding tasks. They add the date, time and description of what’s required.
Shared calendar
Crew Members can see and accept tasks using the shared calendar. You can easily choose jobs that suit your expertise and schedule.
Crew Members are notified
You’ll be notified through the app when new tasks are created or if tasks have been updated.

Help Literacy
If you find it hard to offer help, you’re not alone.
Even when it’s someone we care about, we still have fears, concerns and hesitation when we want to offer help. But if these feelings aren’t managed, they can stop people from receiving the care and support they need.
It is important to remember that offering help is a skill. Like most life skills, it can take practice before it feels natural.
Doing a favour is one thing. But the majority of us are not used to providing essential support. And the unknown is scary.
Through education, information and tools, anyone can overcome the discomfort around helping others or fears about saying the ‘wrong’ thing. Access these resources yourself at our Help Literacy Hub.
