Domiciliary Care in the UK Industry Data and Analysis

OP
Oliver Parmar
Analyst London, United Kingdom August 2025

Revenue in the Domiciliary Care industry is anticipated to climb at a compound annual rate of 6.8% over the five years through 2025-26 to £6.7 billion. Requests for care have gone up, supported by an ageing population and the rising prevalence of disabilities among the adult population. As demand grows, the government is investing more in the industry – for example, in 2025-26, the government added £880 million to the Social Care Grant. This will help domiciliary care providers raise wages to retain staff and improve the quality of care. Parallel to this, high demand is seeing more Britons switch to private providers, which generate higher revenue per patient than their public counterparts, further raising revenue and lifting profitability. Revenue is slated to swell by 1.2% in 2025-26.
