The Digital Switchover: Is Your Grouped Living Scheme Ready

You are invited to join us for our next webinar:

D​ate: Thursday 12 November 2026

Time: 14:00 - 15:00

Location: Online Via MS Teams

TSA estimates that fewer than 30% of grouped living schemes have migrated to digital alarm systems. With the January 2027 PSTN deadline fast approaching, there's still a lot of work to be done.

For housing providers and those managing extra care, retirement and independent living schemes, time is running short to decide what happens next.

Some schemes will be able to complete their move to digital before the deadline. Others may need an interim solution to keep their existing alarm systems working while a longer-term replacement is planned.

But continuing to rely on ageing analogue technology brings risks, particularly around reliability, compatibility and ongoing support. Understanding those risks, and the options available to manage them, is increasingly important.

Join us for our upcoming webinar, The Impact of the Analogue to Digital Transition on Grouped Living Schemes, where we'll cover:

• Where things stand: The latest position on the digital switchover and what the January deadline means for grouped living schemes.
• The options available: From fully digital and hybrid systems to wireless technology and interim arrangements.
• Costs and practical considerations: How different approaches compare, including installation requirements, disruption and longer-term planning.
• The risks to consider: Ageing equipment, connectivity, resilience and compatibility with Alarm Receiving Centres.
• What to do now: How to assess your existing systems, decide on an appropriate approach and put a migration plan in place.

We'll look at the advantages and limitations of each approach, including where interim solutions may be appropriate and what needs to be in place to ensure alarm communications remain reliable.

Whether you're responsible for one scheme or hundreds, this webinar will help you understand your options and the steps you need to take.

The January deadline is approaching. If your schemes haven't yet migrated, now is the time to act.
