Inkfish Homes offers a new approach, transforming children’s accommodation through innovation, expertise, and unwavering commitment.

Local authorities face unprecedented pressures in children’s services. Costs are escalating, resources are diminishing, and the current system struggles to meet the growing needs of vulnerable children. This is a moral imperative.

Our specialist solutions empower local authorities with greater control, improve outcomes for children, and deliver financial efficiencies. We’re redefining the accommodation sector with models that enhance environments while delivering cost-effective solutions.

Inkfish Homes develops innovative models that address key challenges in children’s accommodation, including accelerated development, strategic control, sustainable solutions, quality assurance, and financial efficiency.

We work in alignment with, and often ahead of, the government’s ‘Keeping Children Safe, Helping Families Thrive’ white paper (November 2024), which emphasises the need for ‘fixing the broken care market’ by increasing local authority control and improving the quality-of-care settings.

Our approach directly addresses the financial pressures highlighted within the white paper, where the Local Government Association (LGA) reports councils facing a £3 billion funding gap in children’s services by 2025.

Additionally, we are mindful of Ofsted’s findings, which indicated over 1,100 suspected unregistered children’s homes in England as of March 2023, driving our focus on Ofsted compliance and quality assurance.

Our solutions are designed to not only meet the current needs but also anticipate future challenges and opportunities for improvement in the sector.
