Community Calling Ltd
Community Calling is a digital, community support matching service for Northern Ireland. Our goal is to get the right support to the right people at the right time, without duplication. Support requests are quickly matched with available, local support via a central platform.
Community Calling was formed as a volunteer-led initiative to coordinate urgent community support across Northern Ireland in response to the pandemic. The project quickly gained traction with support reaching thousands of people in just a few months.
To date, the beneficiaries are those significantly affected by the pandemic, in particular those who are isolated, elderly or in a vulnerable situation. However, as new needs arise, our services are being extended to support people facing a multitude of challenges.
Our volunteers and supporting organisations have full use of our mobile and web app Community Network NI to explore opportunities for collaboration, respond to support requests, and use our technology to boost our combined efforts to support the community.
