Meet Nursebuddy at Care Roadshow Yorkshire next month

Written by Jayne Scarman, Head of Marketing at Nursebuddy | Oct 20, 2026, 11:27:52 AM

Put the kettle on, Yorkshire, we’re coming for a visit! We’re packing up, hitting the road, and heading your way for the Care Roadshow on Tuesday 3rd November 2026 at Elland Road Stadium in Leeds.

We can't wait to connect with our amazing homecare community for a chat, a warm cuppa, and some fresh ideas to make running your care business simpler. Our kylä means everything to us, so please pop by our stand and say hei! 👋

Time for less "argh!" and more "aaahh"

This autumn, we’re particularly keen to chat with homecare leaders looking for ways to streamline operations without the headache usually attached to changing tech.

If you’ve been feeling stuck with software that isn't serving your team (but dread the thought of spending up to 120 hours manually copying client records, shift patterns, and carer profiles) come talk to us. We’re showcasing our new limited software migration offer! Our technical experts will handle your entire data migration for free, while you and your office team "relax like a Finn" with a £500 relaxation package on us.

Book a session with us in advance, or look out for the Nursebuddy team on the day!

Did you know?

Speaking of Leeds, did you know the city has a special literary link to Finland? Back in 2017, Leeds Central Library received a gifted collection of Finnish books, including our national epic, the Kalevala! It’s a lovely piece of culture right in Yorkshire that’s well worth a visit (though good luck pronouncing the titles without practice!)
