Reasons to be cheerful 1, 2, 3
Castleoak, as a canary in the coal mine? Turnover FY2015 £50 million FY2016 £85 million+ FY2017 £80 million (already secured)
We are seeing… • Significant expansion in the Private Extra Care Market • Strategic desire by the public sector to produce more Extra Care • Extra Care as the ‘profit for purpose’ vehicle of choice • RP and Not for Profit Sector leading in virtually all aspects of provision…but • Lenders very keen to invest Assisted living apartments for sale now on site by Castleoak at Princes Risborough for Anchor Trust
• Care sector development is steady • There’s a profound split between private pay & socially funded • A North / South divide • Care sector re-provision and refurbishment is a big topic • Real shortage of construction labour • Recruitment is the No.1 challenge for care operators Retirement living apartments for sale now on site by Castleoak at Windsor View for Castle Retirement Living
So, what do we need?
A coherent Government strategy? • Government / planning recognition of a nuanced sector - C2 / C3 debate • Tax incentives to downsize • An objective debate about NHS budgets v. Social Care budgets • Political leadership on the longevity revolution • A cultural shirt in attitude towards ‘retirement living’
Where’s the innovation? Abbeyfield Winnersh care home – by Castleoak
Intergenerational living homes More high rise social care Outsourcing of local authority care to ALMO More standardisation and off-site manufacture Smarter use of ICT
Let’s wrap it up
• Our sector is not discretionary • There are a blend of solutions to be enhanced, explored and devised • There is cultural resistance to ‘retirement living ’ • An honest debate about Social Care funding is desperately needed • Socially, the longevity revolution is the most profound challenge of our age
