Middleton-headquartered Vestacare UK Ltd has secured new funding from Santander Corporate & Commercial to support a new 8-bed short stay centre. The funding sits alongside a refinancing solution of an existing funding package provided by the bank.听
Founded in 2007, Vestacare UK is a leading learning disability care specialist and care home provider in the North West, and has grown over the past decade to support 90 service users across three specialised facilities in the Greater Manchester area. The business currently provides care via its Silverdene care home, which offers long-term residential care for young adults with learning disabilities and the Oakdene Day Care centre, which offers day care for adults with learning disabilities.
The funding provided by Santander will fund the new 鈥楶aul Murphy Centre鈥, a specialist short stay centre, and a hydrotherapy centre, which provides holistic and rehabilitating hydrotherapy, in Blackley, Manchester. As a result of the funding, the firm has created 20 new jobs in the local community with plans to hire 20 additional employees in 2019.
