Heartland Cares. A forward-thinking social enterprise delivering vital care services in rural communities
This business plan sets out a bold vision for Heartland Cares, a community-led home care service in North Perthshire, addressing the challenges of delivering care in rural areas.
The initiative aligns with the Perth & Kinross HSCP Strategic Commissioning Plan 2023-2026, contributing to a more ethical and collaborative approach to social care. By integrating the statutory, independent, voluntary, and community sectors, it creates a sustainable model that prioritises health, wellbeing, employment, and community resilience.
Initially serving Rannoch, Tummel, and Dunkeld & Birnam, the service has the potential to expand, supporting other rural communities facing similar challenges. This plan outlines how we will turn this vision into reality, ensuring high-quality care where it’s needed most.
