Identify and connect digital leaders across children and adult social care:
we aim to hear from leaders across all parts of the UK – hearing from those engaging with tech and care in a diverse range of settings and contexts
promoting the value of leaders who understand both tech and care
Provide a platform for leaders to ‘see tech in action’, discuss research papers that influence practice and test ideas as to how technology will shape the future of what social care looks like:
we meet three times a year, welcoming guest speakers who showcase new, innovative and informative ideas that affect the social care sector. Learning and connecting by seeing tech in action is a central role of the community of practice.
Learning from what hasn’t worked is really valuable, so we aim to provide a space where questions can be asked and critiquing innovation and transformation is central to our aims.
To raise the profile of social care across BCS, health and social care organisations, to policy makers and society as a whole:
Social care has not had the traction or attention policy wise for far too long, yet its central to all of us. We aim to raise the value of what social care looks like at its best and how tech can support this
By connecting digital leaders we aim to unearth good practice and examples which we can use as a vehicle to illustrate the art of the possible – influencing BCS policy but also wider government thinking around social care.
