Listen "EP. 99 | Dr Robert Dow Kilgour | The Next Five Years Will Define Social Care"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode of Relight Your Fire, I sit down with the remarkable Scottish entrepreneur and philanthropist Robert Kilgour, founder of Four Seasons Health Care, Renaissance Care and the Social Care Foundation. Robert's journey is extraordinary, from selling jeans at university to building one of the UK's largest care home groups, and now shaping national policy through the Who Cares Review. We dive into the lessons he learned scaling Four Seasons, the importance of meaningful delegation, and the systems he has built at Renaissance Care to create sustainable, people centred growth. Robert also shares candid insights into the future of social care, from workforce challenges and visa reforms to funding pressures, fair pay agreements and the urgent need for NHS and social care integration. His unwavering passion for people, leadership, entrepreneurship and legacy shines throughout this powerful conversation. At 76, Robert has no intention of slowing down, and his energy, clarity and commitment to the sector are truly inspiring. 🎧 You can listen to this episode on Spotify, iTunes and YouTube by searching "Relight Your Fire".
