At Birdie, we’re dedicated to helping home care providers to deliver the best care - to help us reach our goal of improving the lives of 1 million older adults by 2023. Never before has our mission been so important. And that’s why, in light of COVID-19, we’ve been running regular webinar sessions, to help care providers to access the information they need to deal with the challenges that lie ahead.

One area that our partners have found particularly difficult during COVID-19 is in management of their finances. We spoke live to David Budd, Head of Strategic Partnerships at LifeLine 24 and James Eden, Managing Director at Enthuse Care to discuss all things finance management, loans and contingency planning.
