What We Do
One of the Working Group’s core goals is to establish an AI Champion in every NHS Trust in the UK. With more than 150 Champions active nationwide, we are growing a network that spans primary care, community services, mental health, acute care and social care. Champions support the adoption of AI by raising awareness, sharing learning, championing best practice, and helping to ensure AI is used safely, effectively and equitably. Together, they create opportunities for collaboration, peer learning and system-wide impact, connecting local innovation with national priorities.
The Responsible AI UK Health and Social Care Working Group acts as a national convenor, bringing together expertise from healthcare, academia, industry, government and patient communities to advance the safe, ethical and equitable use of AI. We develop practical frameworks, guidance and networks that help organisations evaluate, deploy and govern AI technologies responsibly.
Through collaboration, evidence generation and policy engagement, we work to build workforce and public confidence in AI, promote fairness and inclusion, and ensure innovation delivers meaningful benefits for patients, professionals and communities. Our members contribute independent expertise on the development, evaluation and implementation of AI technologies, helping to shape a health and social care system that is both innovative and trustworthy.
