Passion Capital backs HomeTouch, a platform to find home care, founded by Jamie Wilson (SLP London, 2012)

HomeTouch was founded by former NHS doctor Jamie Wilson in early 2015 and borne out of his frustration of seeing patients in hospital struggling to find care when discharged home. HomeTouch is currently helping carers deliver thousands of hours each week and has customers across every London borough. HomeTouch uses a combination of technology, expert recommendations and flexible pricing to match families with local carers who possess the skills and experience which suit a client’s needs. This contrasts with the UK’s 7,000 traditional care agencies that provide little choice to families, minimum wage pay to carers and quality which is patchy and poor.

Today it is UK’s leading online platform to find vetted and experienced home carers and has secured investment financing from one of London’s leading venture capital firms, Passion Capital. The funding will accelerate HomeTouch’s expansion across London, increase the number of vetted carers on its platform into the thousands and expand its range of features which already improve choice, transparency and efficiency of finding high quality, affordable home care.
