Lincs care provider snaps up new facility

Lincolnshire-based care businesses Wispington House and M & M Care have secured funding from Barclays to expand the business with the purchase of a new home Carlton Lodge Care at North Carlton.

The business currently provides care to over 50 residents and haw recently progressed plans to refurbish the previously closed care facility Cheyne House and build new facilities.

Managing director Brij Patel, said: “We are very excited to be expanding our brand of exceptional, holistic care, catering to all our residents’ needs. Our priority is improving the quality of life for those who choose to reside with us, maintaining their privacy, dignity and ability to manage their own lives. This new acquisition will enable us to support more families with the care of their loved ones and it’s fantastic that Barclays has been able to support us on our growth journey.”

“We are at completion stage of the renovation programme which includes modern technology to enhance our resident experience. We already feel part of the North Carlton community who have been very welcoming to us. ”

Operations manager Elizabeth Harding said: “We are looking forward to providing pre bookable respite in our new home, to enable carers to plan their much needed and deserved breaks. We will also be providing daycare and permanent residential care.”

Between their two current Homes, they currently employ over 70 staff across Lincolnshire and they say this will increase as soon as the refurbishment is completed.

Simon Jenkin, Barclays relationship director, said: “We are delighted to work with Brij and his team and provide a full banking package.”
