Our story

Why we started CallMatilda

Returning from university for a break, Matilda was taken back by the pub she had worked at previously. They only published the rota for the week ahead on the Sunday evening — and she was issued 5 hours of work for the whole week.

"How can someone live on 5 hours work?"

Comforting her, I said: "There must be lots of places that need you and your skills in their workplace today — right now!"

Let's build a noticeboard that businesses can advertise Today for what they need filling Today.

"CallMatilda!" we all said. CallMatilda!
