📣 We're thrilled to share that GoGoGrandparent is now in Australia! In partnership with Uber Health, older adults and people with #disabilities in Australia can now call GoGoGrandparent at 13 4628 to book rides with Uber without the need for a smartphone or the Uber app. By combining GoGoGrandparent's specialized customer support for #olderadults with Uber Health’s vast mobility network, this collaboration seeks to revolutionize the way older Australians, like Tony Sullivan, travel. Tony Sullivan, 79, is a retired English and Economics teacher who lives 30 minutes outside of Brisbane. He no longer drives, so when he recently had a doctor’s appointment downtown, he considered his options. Other private services could be expensive and public options often have specific hours that could sometimes keep him out all day. Tony Sullivan said GoGo is more convenient because you can get it any time. “I took it to and from the appointment and arrived on time,” said Sullivan. “It was excellent service. I just have to press a few digits on my phone and a car picks me up as soon as possible, which is really simple. I’ve been really happy with this new option. It suits me well.” “We are thrilled to bring our #transportation solution to Australia so that older adults and those with disabilities have a reliable, accessible, and convenient way to request rides,” said Justin Boogaard, co-founder and CEO of GoGoGrandparent. "Our mission is to ensure that people can enjoy the freedom of #mobility as they #age, and our work with Uber Health will now help us support Australians’ independence.” See the complete announcement here: https://bit.ly/3teGA26 #aginginplace #agingwell #agingservices #agingparents #accessibility #mobilitymatters #transportationsolutions
