The Connected Health & Care Summit 2026 is more than a date in the diary; it’s a catalyst for progress. On 9–10 July 2026, health and care leaders, innovators, and practitioners from across the United Kingdom will gather at The International Centre in Telford for two days of insight, collaboration and inspiration. This year marks a new chapter: the Summit moves to the summer for the first time, bringing a fresh energy to the conversations shaping the future of health and care.  

Whether you’re an RLDatix customer, a partner, or exploring how to strengthen safety, workforce resilience or operational excellence in your organisation, this is the event designed for you. 

A community like no other 

he Summit brings together one of the largest communities of health, care and social care leaders in a single forum, uniting service planners, clinical operations leaders, workforce specialists, digital teams and patient safety experts. It’s a rare opportunity to connect with peers who understand your challenges and share your ambitions.  

Attendees consistently highlight the value of meaningful connections, shared learning and real insight, a sentiment echoed by leaders across the RLDatix community. 

Learn, discover and explore 

Across two days, you’ll have access to a rich programme designed to support both personal and organisational growth: 

  • Network with peers from diverse health and care settings to exchange ideas and learn new ways to get the most from your RLDatix solutions.  
  • Discover fresh perspectives from health and care leaders and leave with actionable ideas to take back to your teams.  
  • Learn through educational sessions tailored to the realities of modern care delivery.  
  • Explore the latest technologies and innovations that can help you optimise operations and improve outcomes.  

This isn’t just a conference, it’s a place where leaders unite to raise standards, inspire progress and advance the quality of care worldwide. 

Celebrate excellence at the RLDatix Awards 2026 

The Summit also hosts the RLDatix Awards, recognising teams and organisations driving meaningful improvements in health and care. These awards shine a light on practical, real world initiatives that strengthen patient safety, support the workforce and improve service delivery.  

For more than 20 years, the Awards have showcased stories that help others learn, adapt and elevate their own practice, a powerful reminder of what’s possible when we share what works.

Why attend in 2026? 

This year’s Summit is set to be the most impactful yet. Here’s why: 

  • A bigger conversation, greater impact – the new summer format brings renewed energy and momentum.  
  • A united community – hospitals, care homes, social care providers, hospices, digital teams and frontline services all coming together with one shared goal: raising the standard of care.  
  • A future focused agenda – explore how connected systems, data and workflows can reduce risk, improve safety and support more effective care delivery.
