FutureNHS platform

About FutureNHS

FutureNHS is a collaboration platform that empowers everyone working in health and social care to safely connect, share and learn across boundaries.


FutureNHS is safe, easy to use and supports a growing network of people who want to connect with others to accelerate their work. Members of the platform can join or create workspaces and communities to connect with others, learn and share.

The collaboration platform played an important role during the COVID-19 pandemic by helping teams to connect and share across boundaries, and it continues to be central to supporting the system to deliver recovery work.

Who uses FutureNHS?

FutureNHS is open to anyone working in or for health and social care. The platform supports commissioners, providers, senior management, front line staff, clinicians, health and social care colleagues, voluntary and community sector organisations, commercial sector and other interested stakeholders.

NHS England and NHS Improvement teams and regions, primary care networks, integrated care systems and academic health science networks are some of the thousands of groups and organisations using the platform to connect and work online securely.

Why should I join FutureNHS?

Many members of FutureNHS use local collaboration tools like Microsoft Teams and FutureNHS to deliver their work. Both platforms work together to enable health and social care colleagues to work effectively and share safely online.

FutureNHS is owned and managed by an expert team within NHS England and NHS Improvement and is a safe and secure place for people working in health and social care to save, access and share resources and content.

It is a transparent, open and accountable platform. Users cannot post content anonymously on FutureNHS and workspace managers have access to an audit log to track activity.

Workspaces can be set up to deliver work within or in collaboration with the NHS. Workspace managers can manage the permissions of their workspace and specific content within it to only allow access to specific audiences.

There is an ever-growing library of case studies on the platform, owned by and curated by FutureNHS members and workspace managers.
