We are delighted to share the news that two care homes, currently owned by Downing and operated by our investment partners Care Concern Group, have been listed in carehome.co.uk's annual Care Home Awards. It recognises 20 of the top rated Care Homes in each region of the UK based on reviews from residents/service users and their family/friends. The Awards are based on the Care Home's Review Score, as of 28 February 2023.

Roselea Court and Queens View Harbour, currently in Downing's portfolio of high quality care homes, both appeared in the top 20 homes for Scotland, respectively. This achievement is even more impressive as this is the second year in a row Queens View Harbour has been featured and Roselea Court has been awarded this accolade only 14 months after opening.

Haling Park, whose redevelopment and initial launch was funded by Downing, appeared in the top 20 for the London area too for the third year running.

Torsten Mack, Investment Director at Downing, said:

"We are proud to support this exceptional management team, whose strong track record positions them well to build a new business in dementia care. This needs-based sector is underpinned by a lack of quality supply and we are investing in Fortava Healthcare to set and deliver high standards, and to help make a difference."

Johann van Zyl, CEO at Fortava, added:

"I’m thrilled to be working with Jamie, as we share the same values. We plan to grow Fortava into a leading provider of dementia care over the next five to seven years. But growth isn’t our primary focus—our goal is to deliver outstanding care and foster a joyful, supportive environment for both residents and staff. We’re delighted to be partnering with Downing who also share our values and we look forward to this journey with them."

Jamie Stuart, CFO at Fortava, commented:

“For me, it's about being more than just another care home provider. While dementia care in the UK is generally of a good standard, we want to set ourselves apart with a fresh approach. That’s why, after over 25 years in banking, I chose to partner with Johann and Downing on this venture.”
