PE-backed supported living provider acquires home care business

Eden Futures, a private equity-backed independent supported living provider, has expanded with the acquisition of Complesso, a West Midlands-based provider of supported living services.

Complesso, which was established in 2015 and is based in Wolverhampton, provides supported living services to adults with learning disabilities and other mental health conditions. The company employs close to 500 staff and supports more than 200 clients through a combination of supported living services and bespoke community support for people in crisis.

The acquisition of Complesso represents the continuation of Eden Futures’ buy-and-build growth strategy. Since partnering with private equity firm Sovereign Capital Partners, the company has integrated a number of providers, including Essential Futures, Care Wish, Supported Homes and HASS.

Headquartered in Lincolnshire, Eden Futures operates nationally, supporting people who are autistic, have learning or physical disabilities or experience mental ill health.

Helen Stokes, Chief Executive of Eden Futures, said that the deal was an important step in the firm’s growth strategy, expanding its West Midlands presence, while “adding meaningful additional scale to our high-quality supported living services.”

Stokes continued: “Complesso’s approach to care delivery mirrors our own, and we look forward to integrating its talented team and combining our expertise to benefit the individuals we support. This partnership strengthens our position as a leading provider of supported living services across the Midlands and Northern England.”

According to Dominic Dalli, Managing Partner at Sovereign Capital Partners, Complesso’s strong reputation in the West Midlands, combined with its focus on high-quality care provision, align with Eden’s strategy of balancing quality care with responsible growth.

Complesso director John Harper said: "A key focus of the sale process was to identify a buyer who would maintain the quality of support to our clients that has been the differentiating factor in the growth of this business over the past decade. At an early stage, it was clear that Eden shared the same ethos and ambitions for the business."

In the year to March 31 2025, Eden Futures Topco Limited reported turnover of £60.1 million, up from £51.7 million a year earlier, while operating profit increased from around £3.2 million to £4.7 million.
