Elderly residents across Wales are being forced to move after Welsh councils shared "significant concerns" about two private care homes' finances. Carmarthenshire County Council and Pembrokeshire County Council have terminated their contracts with Plas Y Bryn Care Home in Cwmgwili, near Llanelli, and Ridgeway Care Home in Llawhaden, near Narberth, after attempts to understand the care homes' operator's finances were unsuccessful.
As a result of the councils giving notice on their contracts, vulnerable residents will be found new accommodation in their counties. Plas Y Bryn Care Home has facilities for 34 residents and Ridgeway Care Centre can house up to 47 residents.
Raqia Bibi and Mohanananthan Kuhananthan are the directors of Mufulira Ltd, provider of Ridgeway Care Centre, and Comfort Care Homes (Plas y Bryn) Ltd, provider at Plas Y Bryn Ltd. They are also directors and owners of RB Care Homes, providers of Pontypridd Care Centre, which is facing a winding up petition from His Majesty's Revenue and Customs.
