After a big change in the family, Martin helped his mum work through what came next: the paperwork, the money, and where she should live. Along the way he kept hitting gaps. Clear answers were hard to find, good help was hard to reach, and the local support around her was easy to miss. LaunchUP is the site he wished they'd had: genuine help, plain answers, and a way back into your local community.
Independent: families pay, providers don't.
