An award winning East Yorkshire care home provider, Yorkare Homes, is to open two new care homes with the support of an eight-figure funding package from HSBC.
Established in Brough in 1988, Yorkare owned and managed a group of care homes before deciding to sell its portfolio and focus on the development of innovative new build homes. The group currently owns and operates five care homes across East Yorkshire, providing residential and dementia care to over 350 residents. The business has a strong reputation in the care sector for delivering high quality accommodation, with its Magdalen Park and Lindsey Hall homes being granted various industry design and clinical care awards, as well as gaining Outstanding CQC ratings.
To meet growing demand for its services the business has commissioned the construction of two new care homes, each in Hessle and Hornsea. The new care homes will accommodate up to 64 residents apiece and feature ‘street scene’ facilities that include a house bar/café, shops, salons and a cinema. In addition, the new care homes will border countryside, with residents enjoying access to large gardens.
Preparatory works are already underway at Tranby Park Nursing Home, Hessle, and it is expected to open its doors to residents in May 2019. Yorkare expects work to start on the Mere View Nursing Home, Hornsea, in October this year.
The business expects to create up to 160 new local jobs as a result of the two homes.
Laurence Garton, Development Director at Yorkare, said:
“It is no secret that the demand for care homes is growing rapidly across the UK. However, with this increasing demand is also a higher expectation on the quality of the care beds available. With the financial backing of HSBC, we are now positioning Yorkare to meet this demand with these two extra developments in our local area and we are already discussing the potential of delivering new developments in the near future.”
Scott Christian, HSBC’s Relationship Director for North Yorkshire and Humber, said:
“Yorkare is a fine example of a dynamic Humberside business that is delivering a fantastic service to its residents, as well as creating scores of local jobs. It is a pleasure to support Yorkare as it undergoes rapid expansion and we look forward to seeing the business welcome residents to its new homes.”
