WelcoMe is a disability aware customer service solution. This empowering, accessible and inclusive staff training tool, helps our disabled patients to feel confident when visiting our Hospital.

Our customer service team will know your requirements in advance of your visit and relevant information about your condition provided by leading charities in the relevant areas before you come through our door.

Click here to start your journey  We've designed this landing page for NHS Golden Jubilee where your patients can find more information about WelcoMe and links to download the app.

Gavin Neate, Founder and CEO: "Anxiety about travel and arrival will be a major factor in access to and use of the health sector for many disabled people as we transition through lockdown. WelcoMe aims to reduce this anxiety by providing a service that supports the disabled person arrival whilst at the same time supporting the staff member in the provision of service. As a Scottish company, we could not be more proud that Golden Jubilee will be the first Hospital in the UK to employ this award-winning technology and we look forward to helping the NHS build back even stronger than they were before".
