A web-app to tackle social isolation

Careview is a web-app that uses GNSS positioning to improve the accuracy of outreach and door-knocking to identify socially isolated residents in a city, helping councils save money and improving the statistical chances of finding socially isolated residents. The output is a secure map of social isolation hotspots across a city. This map is generated by council frontline staff who create a location-based alert by tapping the app if they see one of seven signs of social isolation. Outreach teams use this information to plan site visits. The focus of the demonstration project is the enhancement of Careview with additional features like re-assessment of hot-spot intensity during site visits and validation with additional pilot cities.
