"Cera is a multi-award winning, technology-enabled home care provider. Our absolute priority is delivering best-in-class care; we achieve this through only selecting the top 5% of care workers, reimbursing them 50% higher than other care providers, and empowering them using technology. Cera also uses digital to improve the transparency of its services, allowing clients, families and health professionals to see real-time updates in care delivery, while harnessing technology to improve the efficiency of our services.

We are the UK’s fastest growing care company. Since our official launch in November 2016, Cera has experienced 40 per cent month-on-month growth and partnered with over 10 NHS organisations covering a population of 6 million people. We closed £2.7 million in seed funding over the past six months. We have signed partnerships with transport services, insurers, food-tech companies and many others, scaling rapidly while delivering the highest standards of care. We are looking to expand rapidly across the UK and internationally; we are assembling an outstanding team from a range of disciplines, who are passionate about transforming the social care sector, improving people’s lives, and building a multinational healthcare business.
