VillageLink is for people recovering from surgery, families facing a serious illness, the people who want to help, new parents, and anyone going through a hard time.

Help from your people, without having to organize it

Post what would make this week easier, like a meal, a ride to an appointment or a school run. Your friends and family pick what they can do, and everyone can see what's already covered.

Free. Coming soon to iPhone and Android.

Accepting help shouldn't be extra work

People want to help. Telling each of them what to do is the part that wears you out.

Too many messages

Sorting out one dinner takes twenty texts across WhatsApp, SMS and email.

Five lasagnas, no groceries

Without one shared list, people double up on some things and nobody covers the rest.

Asking is hard

When you're unwell or worn out, deciding who to ask for what is one decision too many.

How it works

Invite the people you trust, post what you need, and let them choose what they can do.

Private

Only people you let in

Share your village link with the people you'd normally ask. They tap it to send you a request, and you approve each one, so even if the link gets forwarded, only people you know get in.

Nobody can see your village until you accept them
You can remove anyone, at any time
No ads, and we never sell your data

One shared list

Post what would help

Meals, groceries, a ride to an appointment, school pick-ups, walking the dog. Add the day and any details once, and your whole village sees it.

Helpers take a task with one tap
Once it's taken, nobody else can claim it
If plans change, they can tell you and hand it back
When it's done, you can send a thank-you
Free to use

Why it's free

VillageLink is made by Summit Software & People. As our name says, we care about the people as much as the software, so we build VillageLink at no charge and pay for its servers ourselves.

We started it because we've seen up close how much work it is to organize help after a surgery, a hard diagnosis or a new baby.
