Company news
Dec 18, 2025
Care UK is growing, which will see the organisation ending 2025 with new opportunities in the sector.
As of the 18th December, the provider has taken over the management and care provision within all homes formerly belonging to Aria Care and Danforth Care Homes.
This makes Care UK the second largest care provider for older people in the country.
This unprecedented expansion adds more than 12,000 beds and sees over 15,000 colleagues joining Care UK, with more than 250 homes across England, Scotland and Wales being operated by the organisation.
Operations Directors Karl Dawson and Daren Dalmedo, formerly of Aria Care, are among the 15,000 colleagues moving over to Care UK to continue to support their homes.
Andrew Knight, Chief Executive Officer of Care UK, said: “My team and I have the utmost respect for everything that Aria Care and Danforth Care Homes have achieved over the years, and we are proud to be a part of their ongoing journey. Our strong values and dedication to care quality will complement those pre-existing within the two providers. The top priority for everyone involved is that residents and their families continue to receive exceptional care and support during our transition process and beyond.”
Care UK has more than 40 years’ experience of providing award-winning, high-quality care for older people. It continues to hold some of the highest care quality ratings in the country.
