What they do
AutonoMe develops personalised videos, prompts and reminders giving step-by-step instructions on a range of independent skills for daily life. This technology is accessed through the AutonoMe app and is used by over 400 vulnerable people, including care leavers, those with learning disabilities and those experiencing homelessness.
What we did
We provided the initial loan needed to develop the app, supporting a significant amount of vulnerable people and helping to reduce social marginalisation within the local community.
“We felt a lot of alignment with the mission-driven local investment ecosystem. When we went out for investment it was very important for us that our investors really understand the impact of increasing people’s confidence. That’s why we landed on City Funds.”
Will Britton, Founder and Chief Executive
