A practical support-circle resource for families.
Rally helps families organise private circles for meals, transport, errands, childcare, and other practical tasks around a difficult season. It is a non-clinical tool that organisations can consider sharing alongside their existing resources.

What Rally is
The practical-support layer families are missing
Families are often told "let people know how they can help" — but nobody gives them a simple way to organise it. Rally lets one family member set up a support circle, post what would help, and share a single link. Invited helpers can create accounts, claim practical tasks, and receive reminders. The person going through treatment, recovery, grief, or caregiving can stay out of the logistics.
Reduces the family's coordination burden
Replaces group chats and spreadsheets with a shared task list. Helpers claim slots themselves — nobody has to chase anyone.
Private, no ads, no data selling
Circles are visible only to invited helpers. Rally doesn't sell data, run ads, or integrate with any clinical system.
Clear, family-led boundaries
The family decides what to share, who to invite, and whether Rally suits their situation. Organisations do not receive circle data through Rally, and the product is not a clinical record or care-management system.
Built for sustained support, not one week
Coordination needs often run for months. Rally keeps working as schedules change and helpers rotate in and out.
Where it may fit
Useful around the moments when practical help matters
These are potential early referral contexts, not claimed partnerships or formal programmes. Each organisation can decide whether Rally belongs beside its own services and safeguarding processes.
Cancer-support organisations
Share a practical coordination option for meals, transport, errands, and ongoing support around treatment. Rally does not provide medical advice or clinical care.
Carer and caregiver organisations
Point families toward a private circle when relatives, friends, neighbours, or community members want to take on specific tasks.
Post-discharge and community support
Consider Rally for non-clinical help after surgery, illness, or a transition home, while keeping clinical planning and professional responsibilities in your existing systems.
Community and faith groups
Use a shared link to turn general offers of help into specific, claimable tasks for a family, where that approach fits your group's own consent and safeguarding practices.
Why we built it
"I built Rally after watching my mum coordinate her own cancer support from a hospital bed — fielding texts and chasing offers of help while going through chemotherapy. She needed rest. Instead she was running logistics. Every social worker, nurse, and care coordinator I've spoken with has seen a version of that same story. Rally exists so families don't have to carry that on top of everything else."
John Burke, founder, Rally
How to share it with a family
No extra admin for you or your team
The simplest pathway is informational: share Rally alongside your existing resources and let the family decide. Rally does not replace your clinical, safeguarding, discharge, or case-management processes.
Mention or hand it over
Add Rally to your resource list, or mention it alongside your usual practical-support suggestions.
The family chooses
The family member coordinating support reviews Rally and decides whether it suits their situation.
One link goes out
They share a single link with everyone who wants to help — family, friends, neighbours, colleagues, faith community.
Helpers create accounts
Each invited helper creates a Rally account before claiming the tasks they can cover.

Possible ways to use the resource
Share the public resource
Include the Rally website or App Store listing alongside your existing practical-support resources. There is no assumed endorsement or partnership.
Discuss a referral idea
If your organisation is considering a referral pathway, email Rally to discuss the idea. Any arrangement would be exploratory and subject to separate agreement.
Keep the family in control
Families choose whether to use Rally, what to put in a circle, and who to invite. Organisations should not assume access to circle information.
