Why good deals fall apart
Getting from initial conversation to closed deal is where things get real. Here's what we've learned.
Permanent capital for health & care
A permanent home for your business.
Investing in health and wellbeing to serve future generations.
Our approach
We think differently about building in care, and we invest for the long term.
We know how hard it is to maintain exceptional care for clients and families alongside sustainable business growth. That's why we create lasting value across market cycles.
Our approach lets leaders focus on what matters most: delivering outstanding care while building enduring businesses.
No arbitrary timelines. No rushed exits. Just focused, sustainable growth.
Who we are
Amanda Neilson
Director, Investment Portfolio · CEO, Peace Care Experts
Amanda began her career in Australia, working with families and local communities as a lawyer for Aboriginal clients in Darwin, and later as a high school teacher with Teach for Australia.
She then spent a decade managing projects and teams across Australia, the Middle East and the United States, supporting company growth and community economic development, and earned her MBA at Stanford along the way.
Today, Amanda is Director of Shoreham Partners' investment portfolio and CEO of Peace Care Experts. Amanda loves the puzzle of how good systems and thoughtful planning make excellent care possible. A family caregiver herself, she credits her 102-year-old grandmother for showing her how far patience and a good laugh can go.
Is this you?
We'd love to hear from you if…
You're thinking about what's next
Maybe retirement is on the horizon, or you'd like to step back from running the business without letting your clients down.
You're an owner who feels stretched thin
You love the care side, but payroll, systems and hiring keep pulling you away from it. We can carry some of that weight.
You've built something you're proud of
You want it to last for decades, in hands that will protect its culture, its people and its reputation.
"Every owner I speak with has poured years into caring for people. Our role is to make sure that care never falters, even as you're looking at a transition."
Good questions
The things owners ask us first.
Will my clients notice a change?
Ideally, only for the better. We protect what makes your business special (the people, the relationships and the way you care) and help behind the scenes.
Do I have to leave right away?
No. Transitions last at least 12 months and are shaped around you. Some owners stay on longer; others step back gradually.
What happens to my team?
Your team is the business. We're long-term owners, so our aim is to support and keep the people who've earned your clients' trust.
Are you going to sell my business in a few years?
No. We invest with permanent capital, which means we plan to own businesses for decades, not flip them.
How do we start?
Just send a note. A first conversation is informal and confidential, and there's no obligation.
How we partner
We acquire businesses with the intent to own them for decades. We partner with owners at an inflection point. We focus on business-building, so they can focus on clients and families. And we honour the legacy our partners have built.
Our investors aren't just financial backers. They've built and run care businesses themselves, for decades.
