Community organisations can do more together.
Don't run it alone. CrisisConnect Network brings community organisations together to share resources, make better referrals, access funding opportunities and shape solutions to the problems they face.
You shouldn't have to solve every problem alone.
Community organisations know their communities. The Network helps them combine that knowledge, capacity and reach when one organisation cannot meet a need by itself.
Connect
Build relationships across the community sector, find the right support and make direct referrals between organisations.
Support
Help organisations join the network, get onboarded and make practical use of the tools and relationships available to them.
Fund
Identify funding opportunities and bring organisations together where a shared or collaborative approach can unlock more for communities.
Shape
Listen to what members need next, identify common problems and help turn those needs into practical future solutions.
A family needs a cot.
The organisation supporting them doesn't have one. The worker shouldn't have to start ringing around, hoping somebody knows somebody.
Through the network, they can search resources made available by other organisations, find what is needed and request it.
The point isn't the cot.
It could be equipment, food, specialist advice or another service entirely. The value is knowing what the wider network can offer without rebuilding that knowledge from scratch every time.
The software connects the work. The Network connects the organisations.
networkConnect is the connection layer in the CrisisConnect platform that helps organisations work together. Members using warehouseConnect can make stock available to the Network. Every Network member can then search that shared stock and request what they need as part of Network membership, as well as refer people directly to another organisation for support.
CrisisConnect Limited creates, owns and develops the software. CrisisConnect Network CIC helps organisations participate: onboarding members, supporting collaboration, pursuing funding and working with them to understand what is needed next.
From donated technology to shared community resources.
Lets Tech Together uses CrisisConnect to manage donated equipment through preparation, PAT testing and warehouse stock. When equipment is made available to the Network, every member can find it and request it as part of Network membership.

A Network member in actionThe work happening today can show what is happening across a region.
CrisisConnect was designed as a multi-tenant platform for this reason. Participating organisations use the platform to run their own services; the Network Intelligence layer turns appropriate anonymised, aggregated operational data into a wider view for councils and funders — without asking frontline teams to recreate the same evidence in another return.
Food support
Understand demand across participating food banks and pantries: people and households supported, visits, items provided and how patterns change over time.
Digital inclusion
See which kinds of digital support are being requested, where demand is changing and the scale of support delivered across participating services.
Community capacity
Track measures such as devices rehomed, equipment types, volunteer capacity, referrals and other operational activity by area and over time.
Organisation → Network → Intelligence. The data starts with useful frontline work, not an extra reporting exercise. Explore Network Intelligence
Some opportunities are easier to reach together.
Small community organisations can be doing exceptional work without having the capacity to chase every funding opportunity or build every partnership themselves.
The Network can identify opportunities, help members explore collaborative approaches and seek funding that supports shared priorities across participating organisations.
Help shape what comes next.
The Network isn't only about using today's platform. Members help identify the problems that need solving next.
When the same need appears across several organisations, the Network can bring those organisations together, explore what a practical response looks like and work with CrisisConnect Limited where technology can help.
Local knowledge. Shared reach.
The Network is built around organisations delivering support and the partners who need to understand and strengthen that work.
Community organisations
Food banks and pantries, digital inclusion organisations, community centres, advice services and other organisations supporting people in their communities.
Councils & funders
Partners looking to support stronger local collaboration and, use the Network Intelligence layer to understand community need through anonymised, aggregated operational insight across participating organisations.
