Leicestershire County Care

What Leicestershire County Care does

Leicestershire County Care is a privately held UK residential care home operator running a portfolio of 12 wholly owned care homes across Leicestershire, including Lenthall House, Abbey House, Arbor House, Cooper House, Curtis Weston House, Hadrian House, Harvey House, Huntingdon Court, Kirby House, Thurn Court, Tillson House, and Woodmarket House. The company delivers three core services: long-term residential care for older adults needing daily living support, specialized dementia care, and short-term respite care for primary caregivers. Each home maintains an activity programme built around reminiscence sessions, creative arts, gardening, animal therapy visits, baking, and community outings delivered through partnerships with local organizations such as Stonehurst Farm, Twycross Zoo, the RSPCA, Alpaca Pals, Leicestershire Fire Brigade, and St Mary's Church Barwell.

The business operates on a direct-to-consumer, recurring-fee model: families contact homes directly via website or phone, Home Managers guide the selection and admissions process, and revenue is generated through ongoing weekly care home fees. Care home fees are not publicly disclosed; the website instead directs prospective families to a financial planning page and provides guidance on the Care Act 2014 and funding options. Distribution is direct with no intermediary channels, and marketing relies on the corporate website, per-home Facebook pages, and community engagement rather than paid acquisition. The registered office (57-59 Avenue Road, Westcliff on Sea, Essex) is held under parent Strathmore Care Group, which is a holding/investment entity rather than an operating care provider. The technology stack is limited to a WordPress marketing site with no APIs, no proprietary platform, and no disclosed data or AI capabilities; the underlying "product" is the staffed physical care home itself.
