Twilio Flex: the technology powering human connection

Twilio Flex supports Age UK’s efforts to reduce loneliness among older people by powering services such as the Telephone Friendship Service and Silver Line Helpline, which connect isolated callers with volunteers for regular conversations and support. Replacing seven separate telephony systems with two cloud-based platforms, Flex provides scalable, reliable communications across voice, SMS, WhatsApp, and email while protecting personal information and routing sensitive calls to specialist support when needed. Volunteers report that dependable call quality and near-continuous uptime allow them to focus on callers rather than technical issues, while features for screening, matchmaking, and call routing simplify operations. With implementation support from Zing, Age UK consolidated its telephone services into a flexible platform intended to grow alongside its volunteer-led initiatives without reducing the human element of care.
