Who MyCirCall is for

Families, carers and anyone with someone to look out for. It's built for households, not businesses: the people who'd drop everything if the call was about someone they love.

Children and school The school rings at eleven. You're in a meeting.

Your phone rings, and so do your partner's and Gran's. Whoever's free picks up, and the school speaks to someone who can come. You check later and see who answered.

Schools are asked to hold more than one emergency contact for every child, and they usually ring them one at a time. Put your MyCirCall Number first on the form and the first call reaches everyone at once, so nobody has to wait for the school to work down the list.

An older parent Mum lives on her own, three hours away.

Her GP, her care agency and the neighbour who looks in have one number that reaches the whole family. Nobody has to guess which of you to try first.

It doesn't matter who's at work, on the motorway or asleep after a night shift: whoever can talk, talks. The others get a text on Essential and Peace of Mind, so you all know it's been dealt with.

Caring for someone Share the load, not the worry.

When it's not all on one phone, nobody has to be on call every hour of every day. Whoever's free answers. On Essential and Peace of Mind, everyone gets a text saying who took it, so nobody spends the afternoon wondering.

People in a CirCall can say when they're away for an hour, a day or until a date, so the calls go to whoever is around. If everyone is away, your own phone still rings.

Two households One number on the school form, both parents ring.

When children live across two homes, the school shouldn't have to know whose week it is. One number rings you both, and whoever's nearer takes it.

It works when both parents agree to it. It doesn't change who has parental responsibility, and any court order or school safeguarding arrangement always comes first.

Not for business lines

MyCirCall isn't a phone system, a call centre or a second line for work. It's for the few calls in a year that really matter to your family.

And it's not an emergency service. In an emergency, always call 999 or 112.
