Topol Digital Fellowship cohort 5 open now!

The Topol Digital Fellowship is a groundbreaking initiative in digital transformation, providing health and social care professionals with time, support and training to lead digital health transformations and innovations in their organisations. This year, cohort 4 included social care fellows as part of the fellowship for the first time and now cohort 5 is open to prospective applications from across the sector.

Designed to equip fellows with new skills and knowledge, cohort 5 is open to applications from all staff working in social care. Cohort 4 saw four social care fellows join the programme from a wide range of provisions from supported living to hospice care to residential care settings.

Do you have a digital project that you are interested in? Do you have an idea as to how digital technology could improve the experiences of people drawing on care and support? Do you want to do something innovative? Cohort 5 of the Topol Fellowship could be for you.
