UCLPartners and the NHS Innovation Accelerator have played a crucial role in helping us build the evidence and system relationships needed to move from local delivery to national recognition. Their support has helped us demonstrate how the Digital Health Passport can fit into real NHS pathways and ultimately reach more children and young people who need better asthma support.

Thanks to the support of UCLPartners, we connected with the North East London Cancer Alliance, who are now preparing to deploy Hippo Recaller services as part of several cancer screening campaigns. We were also introduced to North Central London Cancer Alliance, who will be implementing Hippo Recaller to support the early detection of bowel cancer.
