Case Study - Helping charities reach vulnerable kids — faster, safer, smarter.

Overview

Street Kids Direct is a UK-based charity partnering with grassroots organisations in Central America to protect children from street life’s dangers. Dedicated to prevention, early intervention, and long-term support, the charity empowers vulnerable youth to build safer futures.

To streamline frontline efforts, Novecom Digital delivered a secure, mobile-first platform tailored to resource-limited environments. Outreach teams can log safeguarding concerns, record daily interactions, and maintain comprehensive case histories in real time — even offline. An innovative medical records module enables staff to track injuries, illnesses, and treatment notes, ensuring vital health information is available whenever it’s needed.

Recognizing the role of education in prevention, the platform includes a dedicated iPad app for schools and mentoring centres. Staff can manage attendance registers, monitor behaviour, issue awards, and capture engagement data, with built-in KPIs providing clear insights into each child’s development.

By replacing fragmented paper systems with a scalable, connected, cloud-based solution, Street Kids Direct and its partners deliver faster, smarter, and more consistent support. Following its success in Central America, Street Kids Direct plans to expand across South America and into Africa and Asia — and Novecom Digital will support this global rollout. Our team will adapt the platform to new contexts, provide training, and ensure the technology scales effectively to meet diverse local needs.

From the streets to the classroom to the clinic, Street Kids Direct is building a robust global model for child safeguarding and support through mobile technology.
