Richard Burgess

Managing Director

Hello, I’m Richard Burgess, Managing Director at Right at Home Calderdale and East Lancs & Ribble Valley.

I’m extremely proud of the commitment and compassion our teams show each day in supporting clients and their families. My journey with Right at Home began in 2022 when I opened our Calderdale office, and in June 2024, I was delighted to expand our services by acquiring the East Lancs & Ribble Valley office. I divide my time between both locations, though Calderdale remains very much home at the weekends.

My passion for care stems from personal experience. When my late father was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s in 2016, I witnessed the positive impact that quality homecare had on his life and the difference it made to our family. That experience inspired me to enter the sector and ensure others could receive the same support. Prior to this, I spent my career in hospitality, where I learned the value of exceptional service and always going the extra mile—principles that I continue to uphold in everything we do at Right at Home.

Away from work, family is central to my life. I’m a proud dad to four children (three of whom are now adults) and our lively dog, Barney. I enjoy keeping active, whether that’s walking, playing Padel, or making the most of skiing trips when the opportunity arises.
