About us
We're a driven team with a big belief in the power of social care, shaped by real experience. Motion began with Zeezy (our Founder) volunteering in care homes and took shape during lockdown, when we listened closely to what families and care homes needed most: better connection, more visibility, and less stress. Since then, we've spoken to thousands of families, worked alongside care professionals, and built Motion together with the people who use it every day. Our mission is simple. We want to shine a light on the incredible care being delivered across the country, help care homes grow in the right way, and make life a little easier for those at the heart of it all: providers, families, and residents. Whether you're looking to increase occupancy, save time, or build trust with families, Motion is here to help. We understand your world because we've lived in it, and we've built this with you in mind.
The Motion story
Volunteering in care homes
I (Zeezy) started volunteering in care homes and LOVED it. I was amazed by the stories I'd hear and people I'd meet (both residents and staff).
I met Edith
Whilst volunteering and delivering activities sessions in Hallamshire Care Home I met a wonderful lady called Edith. To this day Edith is the most inspiring person I've ever met!
COVID-19 lockdown
The pandemic meant I couldn't go into care homes any more, so we developed technology that meant we could livestream in. It was around this point that Edith told me how much she wanted to go swimming.
It kept families connected
The tech we developed meant that families could remain connected with their loved ones in spite of where they are in the world.
We kept innovating
We worked with over 3,000 care providers, residents and families to continue to develop our service; ensuring it is truly person-centred.
I took Edith swimming
I was finally able to take Edith swimming! Despite not swimming for decades she was like a duck to water and showed me up big time!
We've delivered results
We've worked in partnership with incredible care providers to deliver meaningful impact and help them to grow. We're proud of our +100 Net-Promoter-Score.
Built a passionate team
I've been lucky to build a team of driven and passionate individuals who all have first-hand experience with social care.
It's only the beginning
We're on a mission to support you to improve and amplify care; and it really is the very start. We truly believe it's an exciting time for social care!
We're still best-friends
I still get to pop in and see Edith weekly. She often reminds me how much better she is at swimming than I am.
