The business supports approximately 220 service users and delivers around 2,200 hours of care per week, underpinned by a committed workforce and an experienced second-tier management structure.
The business has achieved ‘Good’ ratings from the Care Quality Commission across the branches inspected, reflecting consistent standards of care and regulatory compliance. Its established infrastructure and regional footprint made it an attractive opportunity for both trade and strategic buyers.

The rapidly growing operator has worked with RDK in the recent past, having also acquired J.O.T. Ltd and Alston Lodge Community Care Ltd.

His professionalism, market knowledge, and ability to keep both parties aligned made what could have been a complex process feel smooth and well-managed. His deep understanding of the care sector was particularly valuable, giving us confidence at every stage – from initial negotiations through to completion. Thanks to his support, we have also been able to secure another business with RDK. I would highly recommend Asif Musa and the team at RDK to anyone looking to buy a healthcare business.”
