About UKHCAUnited Kingdom Homecare Association (UKHCA) is the national professional association and representative association for organisations who provide care, including nursing care, to people in their own homes. Aims

History and BackgroundUKHCA was formed in 1989 to represent the views of independent sector providers of domiciliary care. It was set up to respond to the many issues arising from the changes in health and social care legislation, which were shaping the future of the sector. UKHCA has grown and offers more benefits to its members and a high profile representative role. The Association takes an active role in liaison with local and central government on all domiciliary care and related issues. It represents its member organisations in the rapidly changing social care sector through contact with:
The devolved agenda has become increasingly important with the introduction of care regulation in England, Scotland and Wales and the proposals to regulate the delivery of care in Northern Ireland. Wherever they are, our members receive the professional support of UKHCA. UKHCA members providing domiciliary care represent a wide cross section of providers – from small businesses to large organisations encompassing the statutory sector, private, not-for-profit, voluntary and charitable concerns. Our members are based all around the UK, from city centres to rural locations.
