Organisations that are using innovative connectivity technologies to support the delivery of better health and care can apply for funding and support through our Future Connectivity programme’s wireless trials. Last year we awarded £1 million to 7 trusts running wireless trials.

This year, we are particularly interested in working with organisations that are considering:

improving productivity and capacity through wireless improvements at fixed locations
improving quality of care through connectivity for people providing care remotely
improving environmental sustainability through use of wireless Internet of Things (IoT)
reducing operational risk through wireless resilience and backup
alternative wireless or Wi-Fi initiatives

Complete our short registration form to apply for the 2024/25 financial year. These will be reviewed once the applications open at the end of March.
