This presentation by Dr Obert Tawodzera sheds light on the pivotal role of WhatsApp family groups in facilitating transnational aged care.

We are delighted to release the recording of our live podcast event, held at the University of Sheffield as part of the Economic and Social Research Council’s Festival of Social Sciences.

Kate Hamblin speaks with care sector employers about how values-based recruitment can lead to better retention and positive, person-centred care.

Our new report, written by Centre for Care colleagues Kate Hamblin and Rachael Black, looks at unpaid carers in South Yorkshire and their use of, and access to, digital technologies and online services.

Watch it again: On Tuesday 18th April 2023 we welcomed Dr James Wright to discuss his first book, ‘Robots Won’t Save Japan: An Ethnography of Eldercare Automation’

This episode is a reflection, in Baroness Andrews’ own words, on the recent report published by the House of Lords Adult Social Care Committee, ‘A “gloriously ordinary life’’: spotlight on adult social care’. The report included evidence submitted by colleagues at the Centre for Care.

We are pleased to release our first Working Paper, written by Dr Grace Whitfield and Dr Kate Hamblin.

Kate Hamblin writes about her experience giving evidence to the House of Lords Adult Social Care Committee’s inquiry on adult social care and comments on the subsequent report published in December ’22.

Recordings of our Expert-led Technology and Care session on 18th October 2022, featuring speakers Richard Parkinson (FarrPoint) and Tim Mulrey (TSA), are now available.
