NRS Healthcare - Compulsory Liquidation

NRS Healthcare, the largest supplier of healthcare equipment to around 40 English local authorities, was placed into compulsory liquidation on 1 August, with Official Receiver Gareth Allen appointed liquidator.

Based in Leicestershire, NRS employed around 1,400 people.

The Leicestershire-based company retained Osborne Clarke to assist in negotiations with key suppliers. Once these negotiations were exhausted, the law firm ultimately advised on placing the operating companies into compulsory liquidation.

Special managers from PwC (Mark James Tobias Banfield, Edward Williams, Helen Laura Wheeler-Jones, Adam Seres and David James Kelly) have also been appointed to enable the company to continue to trade notwithstanding the liquidation.
