Innovation in action
Real-world solutions for better care and healthier communities





At Care City, we don’t just talk about change — we make it happen. We bring together people, technology, research and frontline experience to design, test and spread ideas that improve health and care for everyone.
Whether it’s reducing hospital admissions with virtual care in care homes, developing inclusive tech for people with dementia, or helping care workers grow their careers through new roles and qualifications — our work is about real impact, in real places.
Here are just a few ways we’re making a difference:
- Tech for good: We’ve helped local councils roll out fall-prevention tools and remote monitoring kits that keep people safe at home and out of hospital.
- Human-centred design: We piloted a wayfinding app for people living with dementia, co-designed with those who use it, to help them stay independent for longer.
- Community-powered change: Our work on fuel poverty and social isolation connects residents, GPs and local services to build stronger neighbourhoods.
- Workforce transformation: Programmes like Enablement Champions support care workers to gain new skills, confidence and career pathways.
Our projects start local but aim for wider influence — sharing what works so others can adapt and build on it. We believe change is strongest when it’s co-created with the people it affects most.
We turn ideas into action — and action into lasting change — by working with the people who know what care should feel like.
