An entrepreneur has completed the acquisition of a Telford home care agency after securing £350,000 joint investment from UKSE and BCRS Business Loans.

Rick Kaul purchased Supreme Home Care to become one of the first applicants to successfully receive investment from the newly formed West Midlands arm of UKSE. 

The Tata Steel subsidiary provided £200,000 towards the purchase, with a further £150,000 from West Midlands and Wales based BCRS Business Loans.

As a result, 130 jobs have been safeguarded with a potential to create an additional 50 new roles following the acquisition.

“I would like to take this opportunity to thank UKSE and BCRS Business Loans for their support.”
