I think the CIC will be wound up, and the residual assets will be transferred to its parent company ECT Group CIC. This is a takeover, not a partnership.

Having spent a large part of my career working in the sector, I felt that apart from reading endless CSCI (governement) reports, there was no easy means of getting an idea of what a care home was like without actually living there as was the case in the featured report. My hope is that over time, we will begin to generate many more reviews of care homes so that when shortlisting a number of homes to visit, potential residents and relatives can do so based on the views of those already experiencing them, rather than just hoping for the best. If you would like any more information on this, please do not hesitate to contact me on the email address provided. Kind regards, Lisa O'Neill, Director of Whereforcare.co.uk Hi there- I too have been listening with interest to Today programmes’ reports on the elderly in care homes, and given your interest into the ‘carehomes insight’ report, felt it might be useful to draw your attention to a website I recently established called WhereforCare. http://www.whereforcare.co.uk is the U.K’s only independent reviews and ratings website dedicated solely to the care sector, which has been endorsed by both the National Care Forum and the charity Counsel and Care.
