Who Uses ATFY Socialise?
From care homes to councils, ATFY Socialise helps organisations reduce social isolation, track engagement, and evidence impact — without the spreadsheets.
Faith & Community Organisations
Churches, mosques, temples, synagogues, community centres
Congregational organisations run social programmes for elderly and isolated members but rely entirely on informal check-ins. When a regular member stops attending, it can go unnoticed for weeks.
- •Manage social programmes — lunch clubs, visiting schemes, holiday gatherings — from a simple admin portal
- •Absence tracking with configurable thresholds alerts pastoral teams before someone falls through the cracks
- •Private community spaces keep members connected between in-person gatherings
Pastoral care backed by structured data, and a community that catches people before they become isolated.
Social & Activity Clubs
Bowls clubs, walking groups, bridge clubs, gardening societies, craft circles
Social clubs are a lifeline for older members, but committees manage everything on paper or through informal phone trees. When long-standing members quietly stop turning up, nobody has a systematic way to notice or follow up.
- •Publish your fixture list, social events, and open days where new members in the area can find them
- •Track who attends each session — the system flags members who miss consecutive weeks so committee members can reach out
- •A private club space lets members see announcements, share photos, and stay connected between sessions
Clubs that grow their membership, retain existing members, and look after the people who need them most.
Community Support Groups
Dementia cafes, bereavement groups, carers' peer support, Men's Sheds
Volunteer-run groups rely on word-of-mouth and notice boards. New members struggle to find groups, and organisers have no way to follow up when regular attendees stop coming.
- •List your group where local families can discover it — filtered by type, location, and accessibility
- •Members join a private space with a simple code — no app download required for web access
- •Welfare check-in logs help volunteers record concerns and follow-up outcomes in one place
Wider reach, better retention, and a safeguarding paper trail that protects volunteers and members alike.
Charities Supporting Vulnerable Adults
Age UK branches, Alzheimer's Society groups, local carers' charities
Outreach coordinators manage beneficiaries across spreadsheets and WhatsApp groups. There's no structured way to track who's attending, who's dropped off, or what impact the charity is delivering.
- •Replace scattered tools with a single portal for event publishing, member management, and welfare monitoring
- •Automated absence alerts flag beneficiaries who stop attending before a crisis develops
- •Built-in analytics give you attendance trends and engagement data ready for funding applications
Less admin, earlier intervention for at-risk beneficiaries, and evidence-backed impact reports for funders.
Care Homes & Residential Settings
Residential care providers, nursing homes, sheltered housing
Residents often lack structured social activities beyond what staff can manually organise. Families feel disconnected from daily life inside the home.
- •Publish a rolling calendar of events — coffee mornings, music sessions, garden walks — that residents and families can browse
- •Track attendance automatically so staff spot residents who are withdrawing
- •Share updates, photos, and remembrance notices through a private community space families can follow
Higher resident engagement, fewer safeguarding blind spots, and families who feel included rather than shut out.
Social Prescribing & Link Workers
NHS social prescribers, wellbeing coordinators, local authority link workers
Link workers refer patients to community activities but have no visibility on whether they actually attend. Follow-up is manual and inconsistent.
- •Browse verified, accessible events from local organisations — all in one discoverable directory
- •When a referred person RSVPs and attends, the data feeds back into engagement tracking
- •Organisers can flag welfare concerns through structured logs that link workers can review
Close the referral loop, demonstrate social prescribing outcomes, and reduce the burden on GP services.
Local Authorities & Councils
Adult social care teams, public health commissioners, community development officers
Councils fund dozens of community organisations but lack a consistent way to measure their collective impact on social isolation.
- •Onboard funded organisations onto a shared platform with standardised engagement metrics
- •Aggregate analytics across all organisations — attendance, member growth, welfare alerts — in one dashboard
- •Use data to inform commissioning decisions and demonstrate outcomes to elected members
A borough-wide view of social isolation interventions, with the data to prove what's working.
