A NEW partnership has been launched to help people enjoy an active social life from the comfort of their own home.
Twyford-based live-in care specialist Promedica24 has teamed up with online event community Mirthy. It offers people the chance to share, learn, and connect through activities designed to be fun and encourage activities.
It hosts more than 120 different events, include dance, yoga, arts and history, each month from more than 100 hosts, who have all been vetted. .
Mirthy says its platform has been created to help those struggling with social isolation and its negative consequences.
All current and new clients supported by Promedica24 will be gifted a free Premium Account worth £60 a year. Users will be able to easily log-in, register, and attend events that are of interest to them.
Once registered, events will automatically appear on their personalised dashboard.
And there is a seven-day replay service for those who miss the live session.
Promedica24 says its live-in carers will be able to help manage the technology for those for whom it is a struggle.
Grzegorz Wrzosek, country manager of Promedica24, said the firm was delighted to be the first home-care provided to team up with Mirthy. :
“We pride ourselves on delivering meaningful support to our clients and improving their wellbeing,” he said.
“Social isolation can be a real problem for our community, however, through the power of technology and the incredible service provided by Mirthy, the people in our care will be able to meet like-minded individuals in the comfort of their own home.”
And the feeling was mutual. Alex Ramamurthy, CEO of Mirthy, said: “More than 40,000 members have joined Mirthy since launching in June 2021, many of whom are housebound.
“Promedica24 have spearheaded the opportunity within the home care and live in care market, and we look forward to developing this partnership further.”
