Caring for carers is a year-long project (Sept 23 – Aug 24) funded by UKRI Healthy Ageing Catalyst Award, which brings together insights from project SHAW alongside Smplicare, an exciting new tech start-up with expertise in health data collection and modelling. Our aim is to develop an innovative digital intervention which will help individuals better understand the ways in which their health, work and wider lives interact. We do so by utilising existing data gathered during SHAW project and collecting new insights into the technological and sociological aspects of using technology to support healthy ageing at work and beyond.

This project is led by Professor Wendy Loretto in collaboration with Dr Jakov Jandric. For more information about the project visit the SHAW website.
