Healthcare firm Totally collapses but divisions sold
The Derby-based healthcare firm – which lost the NHS 111 support contract in February this year – has appointed Ernst & Young partners Tim Vance and Sam Woodward as joint administrators after failing to secure bids or strategic investors for the entire firm. It said that following the appointment, the sale of its selective care and corporate wellbeing subsidiaries, as well as the urgent care division, was completed to rival PHL Group. 'This transaction sees the continued and uninterrupted provision of all services previously delivered by the group,' Totally said. Totally employed more than 1,400 employees, according to its 2023-2024 annual report. The group added: 'PHL Group will make separate announcements shortly, including communication with the customers, suppliers and employees of the elective care and urgent care divisions, and the corporate wellbeing business, which are all continuing to provide all services as normal following the transaction.' The company's failure comes after a difficult past year, with the firm losing the NHS 111 contract worth £13 million and then revealing last month it was facing a potential medical negligence claim related to an incident in January 2018. At the time, it warned the size of the liability for the claim could be more than the £10 million claim limit on its insurance policy. It launched a strategic review to look at options, including the sale of subsidiaries 'receiving strategic investment or undertaking some other form of comparable corporate action'. Shares in the firm plummeted at the time. On June 6, it announced its intention to appoint administrators after the review had failed to see any 'solvent' offers for parent firm Totally and suspended its shares from trading on London's junior Aim market. PHL – the buyer of its trading divisions – was launched in 2009 and runs services in the UK and overseas, including integrated urgent care, urgent treatment centres, surgical insourcing, custody healthcare, ADHD services and general practice.

Minister Sir Chris Bryant told Times Radio that investment is continuing, especially in defence and health. He said change is needed across all public services to ensure value for money. But warned some areas of spending will be 'much more stretched' and face tough choices. Mike Ashley targets Revolution Beauty and Evri hiring 5,000 jobs: More Business in Brief Mike Ashley's Frasers Group is eyeing a possible takeover of Revolution Beauty.

But it warns there's no guarantee Frasers will make a firm offer. Healthcare firm Totally has gone into administration after failing to find a buyer for the whole business. The Derby-based group once ran the NHS 111 support line until earlier this year. Its key services, including urgent care and wellbeing, have been sold to PHL Group. Administrators from Ernst & Young have now taken control of the company. Tesco reveals its latest results on Thursday, with pressure mounting from rising bills and a supermarket price war. The UK's biggest grocer warns profits could fall by up to £400 million this year. Asda and the discounters Aldi and Lidl are all slashing prices to lure shoppers. Tesco still expects to make up to £3 billion, but that's down on last year. Evri is hiring 5,000 couriers across the UK to stay ahead in the delivery race. It follows a big partnership with DHL, creating one of the UK's largest logistics firms. About 1,000 roles will be permanent, with the rest offering flexible summer work.
