Driving Digital Change: techUK Relaunches Social Care Working Group to Shape the Future of CareTech

techUK is excited to announce the relaunch of our Social Care Working Group (SCWG). The SCWG brings together techUK members and stakeholders from across the social care ecosystem to tackle the challenges facing the sector.

As a member-exclusive forum, it will serve as a collaborative platform to shape industry thinking, influence policy, share cutting-edge innovations, and engage with key leaders in adult social care.

A Forum to Shape Thinking and Influence Policy

The relaunched SCWG will act as a forum for knowledge exchange across the tech supplier community and public sector stakeholders. Members can collaboratively identify common challenges and co-develop solutions. Importantly, the group gives members a collective voice to influence the direction of social care tech policy.

Through regular sessions, members will engage with central and local stakeholders. In the past year, the SCWG met with the Department of Health and Social Care’s Digitising Social Care programme team, Skills for Care, Social Care Future, the National Care Forum and others.
