This Is Where The Natter Network Comes In

The Natter Network works alongside the care you provide, not instead of it. It's a simple way to add regular, matched conversation to someone's week. The Natter Network matches the person you support with someone compatible for regular conversation, arranged around your existing visits rather than competing with them.

  • 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

Is The Natter Network properly vetted and safe to recommend?

Yes. Everyone matched through The Natter Network goes through a vetting process, so you can recommend it with confidence.

How does this fit alongside an existing care plan?

The Natter Network is designed to complement care, not replace it: conversation is arranged around existing visits, not instead of them.

How do I introduce someone to The Natter Network?

A simple introduction is usually all it takes. Get in touch, tell us a little about the person, and we'll take it from there.

Will the match understand the person's needs?

Matching takes personality and interests into account, so conversation feels natural and appropriate to the person.

Does this cost the person I support anything?

We'll talk through any costs clearly and openly before anything is arranged, with no pressure to commit.
