Voyage Care, which has been acquired for an undisclosed sum, also operates care homes and offers supported living accommodation in the UK.

As of November 2021, 95 per cent of Voyage Care's registered care homes in England were rated as 'Good' or 'Outstanding' by the Care Quality Commission.

The care provider has been owned by private equity group Duke Street and Partners Group since 2014.

Charlie Troup, managing partner at Duke Street, said: “We are very pleased to announce the sale of Voyage Care to Wren House. This is a company and sector that we know and understand very well.

"We have worked closely with management over this most recent and successful seven-year period of the Group’s development, backing the team to invest significantly in expanding the quality of care and support provided.

“Voyage Care is led by the best management team in the sector, which is continually recognised for its consistently high levels of care across its residential and community operations for over 3,500 people with complex needs in the UK. We firmly believe that Voyage Care has the right foundations from which to build and continue its success story under new ownership."

Andrew Cannon, chief executive of Voyage Care, said: “Voyage Care has a strong operational and reputational track record which has been driven by the successful execution of our growth strategy.

“Partners Group and Duke Street have been hugely supportive, investing in the key resources needed to maintain our position as a leading specialist care provider in the UK."
