BCQ / Brussels
With the Neighbourhood Concierge (BCQ), Hoplr (hoplr.com) aims to allow elderly people to live longer at home. A Neighbourhood Concierge is a bridge figure who connects (vulnerable) people with their environment, such as a volunteer from the neighbourhood, a local organisation or a professional.
Hoplr is a closed social network that focuses on social interaction between neighbours, and their engagement in the local community. Hoplr is used for exchanging items, organising neighbourhood events, reporting problems or break-ins, finding lost pets, getting to know neighbours, talking about local themes, and much, much more.
