Avante Care & Support as a Charity
As a charitable organisation, we operate on a not-for-profit basis. This means the fees we receive for the care directly pays for care – not shareholder dividends, returns for private equity companies or profits for business owners. Any surplus we generate is invested back into new or existing homes and services, training for our staff and improvements in the care and well-being of our residents and service users.
With over 30 years’ experience, Avante Care & Support have grown to become the largest registered charity in Kent, caring for and supporting over 1,000 people. At present, we operate ten specialist dementia and nursing care homes across Kent, Bexley, and Greenwich, as well as providing home care and well-being support services. Our commitment to making a positive difference is evident in our experienced, dedicated, and skilled workforce, which numbers 1,250 employees and is overseen by an Executive Management Team with wide-ranging expertise in social care.
Governance at Avante Care & Support is robust, with a board of non-executive Trustees that oversees our aims, objectives, and the strategic management of the business. The board includes those with extensive experience in social work, local government, and other relevant sectors. Importantly, no trustees receive any remuneration, payments, or benefits from the charity, underscoring our commitment to channelling resources towards our charitable objectives.
We believe that everyone at Avante Care & Support exemplifies how a not-for-profit model can deliver high-quality, individual-centred care. By reinvesting in our services, we work tirelessly to ensure we continually elevate the standard of care, enriching the lives of our residents and the broader community.
