Husband and wife team expand care business

Husband and wife team, Indy and Kam Goraya, owners of Bluebird Care Solihull, have launched a new social care branch in Birmingham.

The duo have established Bluebird Care Birmingham West, having acquired Bluebird Care Solihull in March.

The two branches are part of national social care franchise Bluebird Care.

Indy and Kam say they are determined to apply their skills, knowledge and experience to something they feel is not only more meaningful, but one that has also impacted their personal lives.

The pair both previously worked in the finance industry, before acquiring Bluebird Care.

Indy holds an ACA having qualified as a chartered accountant with PwC.

After leaving PwC, he worked in corporate finance across transaction services and mergers and acquisitions with both Deloitte and Spectrum Corporate Finance.

He helped set up their London office in Mayfair to enhance their offering across the city.

Indy moved back to the Midlands in 2018 where he was recruited by BGF, the world 's most active growth capital investor, in their Birmingham office, before departing in March to take over Bluebird.

Alongside Bluebird, Indy is a mentor to start-up business at Brunstwood, a non-executive director at a start-up recruitment business and advises multiple independent businesses on growth strategy.

Indy said: “We are delighted to announce the official launch of Bluebird Care Birmingham West as a new territory, part of the national Bluebird Care franchise. Having acquired the territory of Solihull in March 2021, the launch of Birmingham West is further commitment of our passion to deliver exceptional, customer centre care across the Midlands.

"Our team is dedicated to making an impact on the lives of all those we serve, bringing a high quality level of care to those in need, allowing families to feel closer together, and ultimately creating a brand that we and our team can be proud of. ”

Kam started her career as an analyst with global accounting firm EY in their London Advisory team, providing business performance and transformation advice to various clients across the healthcare and utilities sectors.

In 2013, she moved to US consulting firm, Protiviti, where she joined their Internal Audit and Financial Advisory team and qualified as a Chartered Accountant.

Kam left Protiviti in May to join Indy in the running of Bluebird Care Solihull and the launch of their offering across Birmingham.

Kam said: “The opportunity to launch Bluebird Care Birmingham West further strengthens our commitment in making ?a real difference to the local social care sector.

"Our ethos is focused on high-quality, person centred care, something which we are renowned for in Solihull. Since acquiring Bluebird Care Solihull, our passion to make a positive impact on people's lives has only grown and we are excited to bring this to Birmingham. ”

Birmingham West covers a large region, including Edgbaston, Harborne, Moseley, Kings Heath, Kings Norton, Longbridge, Northfield and Rednal. The office in Solihull not only serves central Solihull but also the surrounding areas including Knowle, Balsall Common, Dorridge, Hampton-in Arden and Meriden.
