Aurora Care Group Has Sold the Langley House Residential Care Home

North East care provider Aurora Care Group has sold the Langley House Residential Care Home in Horden, near Peterlee, to an undisclosed buyer, and is now eyeing further acquisitions.

Aurora was founded 13 years ago and also operates the Carntyne Residential Care Home in Hexham. The company bought the Langley House facility in 2018 and intended to add a new accommodation block, but plans were delayed due to the pandemic.

Aurora founder Elaine Reay said: “Langley House is a high-quality facility with a very strong and stable team running it, and in different circumstances we’d already have been well on with realising our plans for its development. But having met a company that could take the business forward at a time that we couldn’t, we’re happy to give them the opportunity to take them forward instead and so provide security and certainty for the community, staff and residents.”
