Everything we do at Swathe.me makes every day better during difficult times. 

We are a small team based in Auckland and we make it easy to give direct practical support to someone you know in their time of need.  Unlike other support platforms, Swathe.me is there when you can’t be there yourself.

It’s heartbreaking for us to see people struggling with the day to day due to an unexpected health or life event, especially when so many people want to help.  However, as we know from personal experience, it’s not easy to know how best to help a friend or loved one in a way that’s really needed. And for them, asking for help is one of the hardest things to do, and rare.

So we wanted to make things easy.

Our simple to use, direct support platform enables you to give practical help in a specific and timely way that suits you both. And whether you prefer to be there in person, or lend a helping hand financially to cover everyday needs when you can’t be there yourself, together we can make a difference every single day.
