Our Digital Telecare Team has been shortlisted for two categories at this years Digital Health & Care Awards.

We’re delighted to share that we’ve been shortlisted for two awards at the Digital Health & Care Awards 2026, hosted by Holyrood Connect.

Each year, the awards celebrate digital innovation across health and care, recognising outstanding work across six categories.

Our Digital Telecare team has been shortlisted for Digital Health & Care Team of the Year, recognising the collective effort behind Scotland’s analogue‑to‑digital telecare transition and the delivery of resilient, future‑ready services.

We’re also thrilled to see our Business Relationship Manager, David Brown, shortlisted for the Digital Leader Award, recognising his leadership and impact across digital health and care.

Both shortlisting’s reflect the incredible collective effort supporting the analogue‑to‑digital telecare transition across Scotland.

Martyn Wallace, Chief Digital Officer & Senior Responsible Officer for Digital Telecare, “Being shortlisted for Digital Health & Care Team of the Year is a fantastic recognition of the collective national effort behind Scotland’s analogue‑to‑digital telecare transition. This success reflects the unwavering collaboration across local authorities, Health & Social Care Partnerships, housing providers, our Digital Telecare team, the Digital Office and the Digital Health & Care Directorate in Scottish Government.

Together, we’ve built a resilient, future‑ready telecare service that protects the most vulnerable, embraces innovation, and shows what can be achieved through a true ‘Once for Scotland’ approach. I’m incredibly proud of the team and grateful to all our partners who are making this transformation real as we continue to support Scotland’s telecare users to move safely and confidently from analogue to digital telecare".

We wish David and the Team the best of luck!
