Leeds City Council, GB Careview app flags loneliness
Leeds City Council commissioned Careview a mobile app that flags social isolation hotspots to help identify people at risk of loneliness. Community development workers use Careview to flag signs of social isolation in neighbourhoods such as large piles of mail or garbage. This information is then used to generate a secure heat map that can be viewed by health professionals, police officers, and charity organisations.
Project Succeeded
The Careview app recently won a coveted Innovation in TEC (Technology Enabled Care) Award. To date, the information gathered by the app has dramatically increased the probability of teams finding socially isolated people and linking them with the services that can help them.
