Become a Member to Positively Impact Social Care Legislation

The founding members of Liverpool Home Care Providers CIC in 2015 are Homecarers Liverpool Ltd and Merseycare Julie Ann.

From just two providers we are now 12 strong and have developed into a recognised organisation that has representation on a number of key decision-making bodies across the Liverpool city region.

As a voice for the sector we aim to increase and improve the identity of the social care sector and to challenge the current perception of it as a ‘Cinderella’ service. We believe social care is an equal to health and not a ‘poor cousin’. We are working towards a sector which is considered on a level playing field with health services and growing our membership across the Liverpool City Region can help us do that.

You can help us by joining forces with us. Remember there is strength in numbers and although we are all autonomous business, we share many common issues which impact on our businesses. If we challenge these issues together, then we can achieve change and better outcomes for us all.

COLLABORATION IS THE FUTURE

Collaboration is the word and it’s been used for a long time now. We all know what it means but how good are we really at achieving it? Who better to collaborate with than with those who understand best the challenges your business faces?

We all understand there are commercial sensitivities in business and that it’s a tough world out there. But we have proven since 2015 that businesses can work together to deliver better outcomes without overstepping the commercial line of sensitivity. With us you know what you are signing up for at the start. We believe that our model gives true meaning to the word collaboration and as such brings us all tangible benefits from membership.
