Writing a Strong Business Plan – Turning Vision into a Viable and Sustainable Children's Home

A strong business plan is one of the most important documents you will create when starting a children's home. It is essential for Ofsted.

Your business plan demonstrates to Ofsted, commissioners, investors and your team that your home can operate safely, sustainably and with the consistency that children deserve. It is the document that turns vision into a viable, sustainable children's home.
