Coming This Autumn: share2care – A New App for Unpaid Carers in West Yorkshire
Support When You Need It, Connection That Matters
We’re proud to launch share2care – a ground-breaking app co-designed with unpaid carers, developed by Care Networx, and brought to you in partnership with the West Yorkshire Integrated Care Board.
Set to launch in Autumn 2025, share2care is a secure, easy-to-use app built to make life easier for carers across West Yorkshire. Whether you care for a parent, partner, child, or friend, share2care brings everything you need to manage care – right to your fingertips. The app is free for all unpaid carers across West Yorkshire.
Why share2care?
Caring for someone you love is one of life’s most important – and often invisible – roles. share2care is here to make that easier by helping you stay organised, feel supported, and be recognised as a carer within the NHS.
Key Benefits:
- All-in-One Care Hub: Store medication lists, care notes, appointments, documents, and more in one secure place.
- Emergency Ready: Create a digital contingency plan linked to your NHS record – so if you’re unwell, health professionals will know you care for someone and what to do.
- Bring Your Care Circle Together: Invite and connect with family, friends, and professionals to share care responsibilities and updates.
- Support at Your Fingertips: Instantly access local and national resources, advice, and support services.
- Peace of Mind: Know your loved one’s care is organised and accessible – even if you’re not available.
What Makes share2care Different?
share2care is the first app in the UK to connect unpaid carers directly to their NHS health record. This means:
- If you're admitted to hospital or unable to communicate, professionals can see you’re a carer and follow your emergency plan.
- Real-time, version-controlled updates keep everyone on the same page.
- It recognises you as a vital part of someone’s care team.
Top Features at a Glance:
- Digital Contingency Plan: Update emergency instructions with time stamps and NHS integration.
- Care Calendar: Track tasks and appointments with shared scheduling.
- Activity Wall: Keep everyone in the loop with real-time updates.
- Document Vault: Securely store and share essential files like Power of Attorney, care plans, and medical letters.
- Circle of Care: Invite others to join the caring journey – securely and on your terms.
- Built-in Privacy & Security: All data is encrypted and visible only to those you invite.
Who is share2care for?
- Unpaid carers supporting someone at home.
- Families coordinating care for a loved one.
- Anyone helping someone with long-term needs or disabilities.
Whether you’re caring for one person or many, share2care helps you feel less alone, more supported, and in control.
