Significant events
- “Increasing occupancy, maintaining good quality and increasing the number of beds offering the Reconnect specialist dementia care provision are the three main metrics which underpin an improvement in profitability and cash generation.”
- “Occupancy averaged 89% during the year despite a planned temporary decline in occupancy in three homes where the Reconnect service was launched as well as a closed unit for a portion of the year in another home.”
- “Following on from the strong success in the previous financial year the group is able to report that the position of 100% of its homes being rated Good with CQC has continued throughout the year.”
- “The main cost challenge in the year was the increase in National Minimum Wage (NMW) rise of 9.8%.”
- “Agency usage declined through the year and is in line with the FY26 budget post year end.”
- “The Group has renewed its Energy contracts until September 2026 for gas and March 2027 for electricity to give medium term certainty over pricing. This has driven significant savings from the previous financial year.”
- “The Group has refinanced its' external debt facility in the year with the new debt facility offering an initial term of three years which in turn offers security for the medium term against immediate repayment.”
