The Oxford Care Market
Oxford and the wider Oxfordshire area form an affluent, high-demand care market with strong need for domiciliary care, live-in care and supported living. Oxfordshire County Council is the commissioner for the county, working alongside district councils, and the area sits within the Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and Berkshire West Integrated Care System. High household incomes support a substantial privately funded market, while housing and staffing costs are among the highest in England. New providers who evidence quality and manage workforce costs can build strong, sustainable services in this market.
