Lucy Towler-Challis
Managing Director & Registered Care Manager
Lucy founded Blue Arrow Care in 2015 alongside her mother, Alexandra. At just 20 years old, Lucy became one of the youngest Registered Care Managers ever approved by the Care Quality Commission, reflecting her early dedication, leadership, and passion for care. Lucy began her career in the care sector at the age of 16, gaining hands-on experience and a deep understanding of the needs of both clients and care professionals.
Blue Arrow Care was created in honour of Lucy’s grandmother, Susan, who lived with Huntington’s disease for most of her life. Witnessing the realities of care from such a young age inspired Lucy’s commitment to delivering compassionate, high-quality support.
Lucy shares: “My Nan was my life. Everything Blue Arrow delivers and achieves is in her honour—and now, in her memory, since we lost her in 2020”. Lucy now oversees the day-to-day operations of Blue Arrow Care, working closely with her senior leadership team, carers, clients, families, social workers, and healthcare professionals. Under her leadership, the organisation has grown into a strong, dependable, and resilient service that consistently goes above and beyond for those it supports.
At the heart of the organisation is a family-centred ethos. Lucy is passionate about ensuring every client is treated with the same dignity, compassion, and respect as a loved one. She firmly believes that anyone working within Blue Arrow Care must share these values. Lucy shares: “I have a clear vision for what I want our team to deliver. I built a team that is inspired by Blue Arrow’s vision—not just paid to deliver it. “
