Care Leavers App and Digital Day Service from focusgov.

Organisations across the UK have come to us for help in meeting legislation and supporting their local people digitally. We create websites and apps for teams wanting to use digital to communicate with families, parents, children and young people.

We are passionate about using technology for good, utilising the latest tech to develop digital solutions that optimise processes and resources in the delivery of front-line services and improving outcomes for communities.

We provide a number of digital tools to support adult and children's social care such as:

Care Leavers App:

The Care Leavers App is being used by local authorities throughout the UK to support and help young people leaving care. Co-produced with care leavers through a series of engagement and participation workshops held with young people across the country, the App is available on both iOS and Android mobile phone operating systems and in multiple languages.

The App enhances the experience of young people transitioning into adulthood by giving them access to critical information and the ability to contact their personal advisors and social workers quickly and easily.

Digital Day Service:

The Digital Day Service provides a ‘virtual’ alternative to vulnerable people who are unable or would prefer not to physically attend day services.

Co-designed with end users the solution provides an open chat “virtual café” which replicates the experience of walking into a coffee shop and joining friends for a chat, helping to reduce solution isolation. It also allows community hubs to schedule and stream classes, events, and activities to increase access to services and reduce operational costs of home-care support.
