Micro-Grant Report: B: Friend (2017)

Conclusion

B:Friend sees this as a long-term project, something that will benefit the organisation, volunteers and older neighbours for the foreseeable future. Now this App is built we see this as being used, and developed on, on an ongoing basis to strengthen the communication with volunteers and active engagement with older neighbours. We aim to report back to stakeholders, including Healthwatch, with relevant insight on a regular basis and collaborate with partners to understand key topics. While we had hoped to have the App fully-functioning by this stage, complications regarding IT security and pro bono hours, has delayed the process but, as you’ll see from the screenshots, we’re almost ready to expand across the befriending programme.
