Care in the West Midlands

What is different about running a service here

The West Midlands combines the seven metropolitan councils around Birmingham, Coventry, Wolverhampton and the Black Country with shire counties such as Staffordshire, Warwickshire, Worcestershire, Shropshire and Herefordshire. Urban and rural services here face quite different rates and staffing markets. We help you work out who is likely to pay for your service, and on what terms, before you build around them.

We work across the region on Zoom, and in person when the work needs it. Travel for in-person work is charged at 55p a mile, and the amount is shown on your quote.
