At Channel³, we believe a better future is possible today, through the power of digital transformation.

We work with the NHS, Local Government, and other local and national organisations to help free up capacity, improve flow and build services that last, through the power of digital.

Why we exist

Our purpose is simple but ambitious:

To help clients utilise the power of digital technology to truly transform the lives of people needing support and the workforce providing it.

This means real, lasting change for:

The people needing care

The professionals delivering it

The leaders shaping what’s possible

When we get this right, together with our clients, we know we can improve and even save lives.

We also know today's challenges in health and social care are urgent, complex, and interconnected.

That's why we've developed our approach around the Power of 3. A clear model for delivering impact in three dimensions

Working in the Now, planning for the Next and building for the Future.

Our story in 60 seconds 

At Channel³, transformation isn’t just about technology, it’s about people harnessing the power of digital and data. We work alongside clients to create impactful change that lasts.  

How we work with you

At Channel³, we don’t just imagine a better future for health and care.

We help build it.

Wherever you are on your transformation journey, we’ll help you move from what’s possible today to what’s powerful tomorrow.

And we will do this in partnership with you and your teams, recognising that it is not simply new technology that changes outcomes but the way it is applied and how it helps transform the way services are delivered today, tomorrow and in the future.

The Power of 3

  • We understand current capabilities and digital readiness. We fix what's not working, tackling immediate pressures and optimising existing processes and technology.

  • We identify and implement the right digital tools to enhance performance, streamline workflows, and deliver better outcomes for the workforce and those it supports.

  • We shape and build new models of care and support, using digital innovation to create services built to thrive in the future.

What makes us different?

Every consultancy talks about change. We make it real.

  • Our work is shaped with doctors, nurses, social workers and service leaders, making transformation credible and practical.

  • We design change alongside your people, so solutions are owned, understood and sustained.

  • We measure success by improving outcomes, supporting financial stability and boosting productivity, leaving capability behind, not dependency.

We support transformation across health, social care and public services.

Explore how we work with you:

  • In health

    From new clinical systems to optimisation, outpatients transformation, to neighbourhood health models and data & analytics, we help health systems deliver safer care and better experiences for patients and staff.

  • In adult social care

    Through digital blueprints, smarter commissioning, and practical tools, we help councils and care providers reimagine how adult social care can be delivered to improve independence, deliver savings, and give staff time to care.

  • In children's services

    Through better information, joined-up pathways and practical tools, we help councils support families earlier, improve outcomes, and give staff more time for children who need it most, driving more preventative models of care.

Our solutions: From immediate impact to future vision.

Here are some of the ways we’re making transformation real:

  • More appointments, less pressure

    Our new insight tool shows trusts how to cut waiting lists fast, redesign services for lasting impact, free vital capacity, keep clinics flowing, and give staff more time to care.

  • Our blueprint for preventative care

    Our health and care blueprint shows how systems can move from response to prevention, helping people stay well, keeping services flowing, and making care safer.

  • Digital blueprint for social care

    Our social care blueprint helps councils deliver better outcomes, free up staff time, and save money, showing how digital makes support earlier, smarter and more joined-up.
