Facing staffing pressures in care? You’re not alone.
Recruiting and retaining skilled care staff continues to be one of the biggest challenges for providers across the UK. Rising costs, high turnover, and increasing demand for quality care are putting pressure on already stretched teams.
But there is a more sustainable way to grow your workforce, without increasing your overheads.
Why more care providers are turning to apprenticeships
Apprenticeships have evolved. With recent funding changes, they now offer a powerful solution to both recruitment and workforce development.
Whether you’re hiring new staff or developing your existing team, apprenticeships allow you to build a skilled, loyal workforce, while making the most of available funding.
New apprenticeship funding changes mean you can recruit, train, and retain staff, while reducing costs.
National Insurance savings
You won’t pay employer NI contributions for apprentices under 25 earning under £50,270, saving up to £3,000 per employee per year.
£1,000 government incentive
Available when hiring apprentices aged 16–18, or those under 25 with an EHCP or care background.
