Bradford Care Association

The Bradford Care Association (BCA) brings unity to care providers in the Bradford district,
helping them to work in partnership for the good of everyone in the social care sector.

Welcome to the BCA

The BCA was established in 2014 as a non-profit organisation with a voluntary board of directors. Initially, the aim was to form an association that could enhance care standards throughout the Bradford district and offer support to care providers, as well as giving the sector a voice on a local and regional level, with the active support of as many members as possible.

We quickly attracted members representing care homes and home support providers from across Bradford. Although our remit has grown significantly since then, all our core principles remain the same and still form the foundations of the BCA’s ethos today.

BCA objectives

  • To provide support and representation for members directly concerned with the day-to-day provision of health and social care services.
  • To identify and promote the highest quality and sustainability of service in the provision of health and social care services.
  • To encourage the exchange of ideas between its members and to co-operate with other persons or bodies having similar or sympathetic objectives where  such co-operation will be for the benefit of its members or the wider public.
  • To represent members / providers to negotiate and collaborate with local government, NHS bodies regarding service standards, system strategies, service specifications and fee payments.
