RESPOND:24 is an innovative home support service offering our customers access to a range of services via a simple telephone call or a personal distress alarm. We visit customers to check on their wellbeing, solve problems and offer support. Our support team can help deal with rogue tradespeople,co-ordinate domestic services and deliveries, or just be there for a reassuring chat. When a customer’s personal alarm is activated, the response team will immediately attend the customer’s home address to assess and resolve the situation. Giving families complete peace of mind that someone is always on call and able to help.

RESPOND:24 is designed to be equally valuable for both elderly relatives and the families who support them. Our services allow the elderly to call for help without the worry of ‘being a burden’, and for their families we help reduce the need for long journeys and lost work time. RESPOND:24 can also be put in place to cover family holidays or business trips. With our pay-as-you-use option there is no long-term commitment and you only pay for services when you use them. Simply purchase credits and use them on the services you need, and top-up again when required.
