About Germwatch

Clear, community‑driven insight into what illnesses are circulating locally.

Our Mission

Germwatch exists to give communities real‑time visibility of local illness trends. By combining anonymous symptom reporting with intelligent analysis, we help people stay informed, prepared, and connected.

Community Reporting

People anonymously share symptoms to help build a clearer picture of what’s circulating.

Real‑Time Analysis

Incoming reports are analysed continuously to detect trends and changes as they happen.

Public Health Insight

We turn raw data into clear, accessible intelligence for communities and organisations.

Who We Are

Germwatch combines clinical experience, data science, and community health thinking into one platform, built to make public health information accessible to everyone.

The Germwatch Widget

The Germwatch widget brings real‑time local illness trends directly to community websites, GP practices, councils, schools, and public‑health partners. It provides a simple, accessible way for people to see what symptoms are rising in their area.

The widget is anonymous, lightweight, and designed to be embedded safely on any website without collecting personal data. It updates automatically as new reports come in, giving communities a clear picture of what’s circulating.

Organisations can embed the widget for free. For installation instructions and usage terms, see our Widget Embedding Guide.
