Where social care innovators unite

The Care Innovation Hub launched the Care Innovation Challenge in 2018, an annual incubator programme.

Bringing together entrepreneurs and innovators – university students and care sector colleagues – to create solutions to key challenges facing the care sector.

The National Care Forum (NCF) is the home the Hub and the annual Challenge on behalf of the whole sector, supported by Think Local Act Personal (TLAP) and our partners. It’s been another stellar year, from the Challenge Weekend in July 2023 to the Final at The Care Show in October 2023.

"‘What a fantastic end to a brilliant three-month adventure with some amazing participants who have shown huge passion, drive and commitment towards changing the face of care, improving the quality of care for people who receive care and for bringing their enthusiasm to the sector. We loved working with them all – it’s a shame that everybody can’t win. We are delighted that Team Tresacare has taken the final prize and we look forward to seeing what is going to happen with them in the future and can’t wait for next year’s challenge. Bring it on!’.."
