Ally Cares Wins Tech Innovation of the Year at the National Care Awards 2025

Recognising the care-tech innovation transforming nights in UK care homes — with proven results for sleep, safety and wellbeing.

Ally Cares has been named Tech Innovation of the Year at the National Care Awards 2025, celebrating the technology’s proven impact on how care homes deliver safer, calmer and more confident care.

In a category packed with strong contenders, Ally Cares stood out for one simple reason: evidence.

Because behind every quiet corridor, every uninterrupted night’s sleep and every safer morning handover, there’s data that tells the same story: Ally is changing what’s possible in care.

“This isn’t just a tech win — it’s a care win.”

Thomas Tredinnick, CEO & Co-Founder, Ally Cares shared

“Innovation should make care feel more human.
This award isn’t about sensors or algorithms — it’s about residents who sleep through the night, carers who trust the technology that supports them, and teams who finish a shift knowing they made a difference. This isn’t just a tech win, it’s a care win.”

From disruption to rest

Care homes using AI insights uncovered by Ally have seen what happens when night-time becomes calm again.
Instead of structured and regular routine checks, staff respond only when someone needs help, reducing disruption, restoring dignity, and giving carers time back to care.

Across Ally-enabled homes, the results are consistent and measurable:

• 63% reduction in falls — fewer hospital trips, fewer injuries, more stability for residents.
• 56% fewer hospital transfers — calmer environments, stronger continuity of care.
• 50% improvement in sleep quality — residents more rested, alert and engaged.
• 30% more staff time for meaningful care — time spent connecting, not just checking.

These outcomes aren’t isolated, they repeat across every type of care setting, proving that better sleep means better care. 

Changing the conversation on sleep

Ally’s work, alongside Care England, has helped bring sleep to the centre of the care agenda.
Through the landmark whitepaper “The Sleep Gap” (2025), data from Ally helped show the link between uninterrupted sleep, reduced incidents, and improved health outcomes.

Tom shared: “Every home that takes sleep seriously sees the difference,  not just in data, but in people.  We’re proud that the sector is recognising that link, and that this award shines a light on it.”

More than an award, a shared achievement

This recognition belongs to every care home, carer and partner who’s trusted how Ally works to do things differently. Together, we’re proving that sleep can be protected, safety can be strengthened, and technology can be truly compassionate.

Winning Tech Innovation of the Year isn’t the end of that journey, it’s a moment to celebrate how far we’ve come, and a reminder of what’s still possible when innovation starts with empathy.

At Ally, we’ll keep working side by side with care providers and partners to deliver what matters most: better nights, safer care, and longer, healthier lives.
