Family-run operator Warmest Welcome has acquired with Bond UK, which, through its trading company, Castlegrounds, owns and operates Red Court Care Home and The Grove Care Home in Pudsey, Leeds.

Red Court was established by Royston Bond in 1984 and was one of the first care homes in Leeds. The Grove is a purpose-built facility from 2017 that has 63 en suite bedrooms and complements the adjoining Red Court. Together, they are registered to care for 101 residents.

After more than 40 years of ownership, Bond is retiring.

Warmest Welcome operates eight other homes across West and North Yorkshire.

Tracey Holroyd, director at Warmest Welcome, said: “Previously, we have taken over care homes that have needed some work to bring them up to standard, and we’re delighted to be able to say that Red Court and The Grove are the opposite of that. We plan to make no changes to the way the home is run and managed, and there are no plans to change any of the staff team.”

Business property advisor Christie & Co facilitated the sale,

Bond UK was sold for an undisclosed price.
