Investor BGF has sold its stake in Birmingham-based healthcare services provider.

CHS Healthcare specialises in providing outsourced services for the NHS and social care providers from its headquarters in Sutton Coldfield.

It has now been acquired by Acacium Group, a specialised healthcare services partner based in London.

BGF invested £10 million of growth capital into CHS in 2018 which helped the business expand its infrastructure and operations, supporting the provision of services to the NHS and local authorities nationwide.

The investment also enabled the firm to bolster its senior management team and pursue acquisitions. CHS was founded by GP and healthcare entrepreneur Richard Newland in 1995.

While working as a GP, he recognised that families needed more support when choosing a care home so the company was founded to provide free advice to families.

It now offers services such as healthcare assessment support and data management and employs more than 250 people nationwide, contracting with more than 150 NHS hospitals and clinical commissioning groups across the º£½ÇÊÓÆµ.

BGF said that, during its three-year investment period, CHS' revenues grew by 75 per cent to more than £20 million.
