Impact Futures Group expands through acquisition

Impact Futures Group (IFG), the UK’s leading training provider for the health, social care, childcare, early years, education, and youth services, has acquired Caring for Care, a leading specialist provider of clinical and mandatory training.

Caring for Care has built a strong reputation for quality, regulatory understanding, and sector expertise, supporting employers to meet compliance requirements while developing skilled, confident care professionals.

This acquisition marks a significant step in the mission of Impact Futures Group to build the leading learning provider serving Britain’s critical care sectors.

And the addition of Caring for Care strengthens the group’s healthcare proposition, complementing its existing apprenticeship, CPD, and mandatory training offering.

It follows the group’s recent strategic acquisitions, including Captiva Learning and ABM Training, as IFG continues to scale its presence through carefully-selected, values-aligned businesses.

The acquisition also reinforces the group’s commitment to delivering training that develops careers with heart and skills with purpose, from frontline roles through to senior leadership.

“Caring for Care is a business with a strong purpose and an excellent reputation as a provider of clinical and mandatory training to organisations in our core sectors,” said Simon Rouse, chief executive of Impact Futures Group.

Joining the group provides an exciting opportunity to build on our success, invest further in our people, and broaden the impact of our training, while remaining true to our clients and learners

“Its commitment to quality training and supporting care professionals aligns perfectly with our mission of Giving Britain the Skills to Care.

“This acquisition further strengthens IFG’s position as the leading training provider to Britain’s critical service sectors.

“By joining IFG, Caring for Care will continue to do what it does best, supported by the scale and investment of the group.”

“From our earliest conversations, it was clear that Impact Futures Group shared our values, ambition and commitment to the care sector,” adds Rob Platt, managing director of Caring for Care.

“Joining the group provides an exciting opportunity to build on our success, invest further in our people, and broaden the impact of our training, while remaining true to our clients and learners.”

Impact Futures Group is backed by August Equity, one of the UK’s leading private equity investors.

Together, they are building a new kind of learning group that puts people first, champions critical service sectors, and delivers measurable commercial and social impact.
