Spencer West guides Mobilitas Group on major expansion with Nottingham Rehab acquisition
Spencer West has advised Mobilitas Group Limited (“Mobilitas”), the holding company behind CareCo (UK) Limited, Globegold Limited, and Motion Healthcare Limited, on its acquisition of the product sales division of Nottingham Rehab Limited (“NRS”).
The deal secures over 13,000 mobility and daily living products and marks a significant expansion for Mobilitas into the product sales market. The transaction also brings valuable trademarks under Mobilitas’ ownership, strengthening its position in supplying mobility aids and products that support independent living.
Mobilitas has grown rapidly since the founding of CareCo in 2009 by Malcolm and William Harrison, with each Group company operating across different commercial and corporate activities in the mobility and healthcare sector. Spencer West has been supporting the Group since February 2023, providing corporate, commercial, and company secretarial advice.
In June 2024, Mobilitas appointed the firm as Outsourced General Counsel, enabling the Group to manage complex corporate matters and strengthen its governance framework.
Clare Waller, Commercial & Corporate Partner at Spencer West, said the transaction reflected the strength of the firm’s long-standing partnership with Mobilitas.
“This deal shows how a trusted adviser relationship allows us to anticipate client needs and deliver strategic outcomes that support long-term growth.”
Clare added that the acquisition would create new opportunities for Mobilitas in the mobility aids market.
“With access to a wider product portfolio and important trademark assets, Mobilitas is in a strong position to expand its market presence and strengthen its offering to customers.”
Tom Stansfield, Managing Director of Mobilitas, said “Spencer West’s ability to rapidly draw on experts from a range of practice areas ensured a smooth process.”
William Harrison, Innovation Director, said “Our lawyers went above and beyond during a challenging transaction – not only did they guide us through every twist and turn with clarity and confidence, they somehow made the process enjoyable. We couldn’t have asked for better partners.”
The Spencer West team advising on the deal included Clare Waller, Henry Clarke, Suzanne Brooker, Michael Shapiro, Kristy Gouldsmith, Jonathan Mansfield, Yvonne Cox, and Denis Valkov.
