In an age where technology often distances us from real human interaction, Crdl (pronounced “Cradle”) brings people back together – through the simple, yet powerful act of touch. Designed to break social isolation and foster deep, heartfelt connections in care homes, Crdl is an interactive care tool that transforms moments of physical contact into meaningful shared experiences.
For elderly residents in care homes – especially those living with dementia or cognitive impairments – social interaction can become increasingly difficult. Crdl offers a unique and intuitive way to reconnect, helping caregivers, family members, and residents establish emotional bonds that transcend words.

How Crdl works
A Crdl moment begins when two users each place a hand on the device’s conductive pads and then touch one another. This simple action forms a circuit, allowing Crdl to recognize the manner and intensity of touch and translate it into sound. The result? A deeply personal experience where the participants shape the moment—whether it’s joyful, calming, intimate, or playful.
Crdl can be used one-on-one or in group settings, creating an inclusive space where every participant, regardless of cognitive ability, has the opportunity to engage. By encouraging connections in care homes, Crdl transforms everyday interactions into meaningful moments of presence.
Bringing Connection to Dementia Care
For residents living with dementia, Crdl offers an alternative form of communication beyond verbal language. Many individuals with dementia struggle to express emotions or connect with others, leading to withdrawal, loneliness, and frustration.
Crdl bridges this gap by creating a safe, sensory experience where connection happens naturally. The touch-activated sounds can evoke memories, emotions, and a sense of presence, helping to:
By fostering connections in care homes, Crdl enables caregivers and loved ones to see beyond the disability and simply enjoy being with the person in front of them without pressure, expectations, or the need for words.


Enhancing the Quality of Life in Care Homes
Crdl isn’t just for individuals with dementia—it benefits all care home residents, as well as caregivers and visitors. It transforms daily interactions into meaningful encounters, helping to:
At its core, Crdl recreates something essential that has been lost in contemporary life – the power of human connection. By fostering connections in care homes, it reminds us that, no matter our age or ability, we all have the fundamental need to feel close to others.
