Octopus Capital

Across Spain, the need for affordable homes has never been clearer. Population growth is at its fastest in over a decade, rents have climbed by nearly half since 2015, and ownership is slipping further out of reach for many young people and families. 

Octopus Capital secures £100m for its Affordable Housing Strategy, funding 1,000 Zero Bills homes across England and Scotland.

Octopus Capital secures £30m funding deal with Synergy for two new purpose-built care homes, delivering 252 high-quality beds in Peterborough and Radcliffe, operated by Acacia Care.

Mike Toft, Head of Care Homes at Octopus Capital, explores how placemaking can bridge the gap between ESG investment and real social impact — and why location must become a defining measure of quality and value in the UK care sector.

As the UK faces a growing shortage of care homes, we are proud to partner with best-in-class operators like Templeton to deliver homes that meet rising demand and set new standards in resident experience. Together, we’re building environments where exceptional teams thrive—and where those who care are fully supported to deliver outstanding outcomes every day.

Octopus Capital, has raised just under £60m from LGPS Central (LGPSC) and Knight Frank Investment Management. This enables our investment managers to harness the power of private capital to enable meaningful progress in the UK care home sector.
