This Is Where The Natter Network Comes In

This isn't about replacing anything you already provide. It's a simple, practical way to add a conversation someone genuinely looks forward to. Once matched, the person you support has someone reliable to talk to regularly, arranged around your existing care, not in competition with it.

  • Someone to look forward to talking to each week
  • Matched on what you enjoy, not picked at random
  • Everyone is verified before an introduction is made

Common questions

Can matching take specific interests into account?

Yes. The more we know about what someone enjoys talking about, the better the match.

How often would they speak to their match?

As often as suits them: flexible around their existing routine and your care visits.

How do I suggest The Natter Network to someone I support?

Framing it as 'someone new and interesting to chat with' rather than a service for loneliness tends to land well with people who simply enjoy conversation.

Is it properly vetted?

Yes. Everyone matched through The Natter Network is checked, so you can recommend it with confidence.

How quickly can someone be matched?

It varies, but getting started only takes a few minutes of your time. Share a little about the person and we'll take it from there.
