Platform for
PLACENTRAL™ is the UK’s first purpose-built platform connecting, Local Authorities, NHS Integrated Care Boards, Care Providers, Landlords and Recruitment Agencies
Today’s care system is fragmented. Demand is rising, resources are stretched, and siloed working slows everything down - creating bottlenecks that delay timely support, increase pressure on services, and impact outcomes for individuals across health and social care.
PLACENTRAL™ is built on transparency, efficiency, and partnership - values that ensure
stronger collaboration, smarter decisions, and fairer outcomes across
Adults’ and Children’s services.

Strategic Insight
PLACENTRAL™ equips local authorities with the data needed to plan ahead with precision. By highlighting future demand, available capacity, and where placements are most utilised, the platform enables councils to work proactively with care providers - pinpointing exactly what will be needed, when, and where. This strengthens collaboration and makes long-term planning far more effective and productive.
ONE NATIONAL PLATFORM
Instead of fragmented regional systems, PLACENTRAL™ provides one unified platform across the country. It delivers national visibility of services and opportunities while respecting local-first priorities, helping commissioners plan placements closer to home and providers reach the right partners.
PROCUREMENT ACT COMPLIANT
PLACENTRAL™ is fully aligned with the UK Procurement Act, embedding principles of transparency, fairness, and accountability into every interaction. By making processes open and compliant, the platform gives commissioners confidence while protecting providers and landlords through fair competition.
GDPR SECURE
Data security and compliance are at the heart of PLACENTRAL™. The platform is UK-hosted, GDPR-aligned, and built with sector-specific safeguards. This ensures sensitive information is protected and partners can trust the system to meet the highest standards.
EASY TO USE
Designed for simplicity, PLACENTRAL™ reduces the training and onboarding burden often associated with new systems. Its intuitive interface allows busy teams to search, match, and respond quickly. It’s open access and web based, making it easy for everyone across the sector to adopt and benefit.
LESS ADMIN, MORE IMPACT
PLACENTRAL™ streamlines manual processes, reducing the administrative burden that slows the sector down. By automating labour-intensive tasks and centralising communication, it frees up resources so teams can focus on delivering the right care and support.
SHAPED BY THE SECTOR
Unlike systems built in isolation, PLACENTRAL™ has been developed in collaboration with commissioners, providers, landlords, and agencies. It reflects real-world needs and feedback, ensuring the platform grows with the sector and continues to solve its most pressing challenges.
