Ramses Underhill-Smith

Ramses (he/him) is an entrepreneur and the Managing Director of Alternative Care Services, the UK’s first, independent LGBTQI* domiciliary care provider.

He is a passionate campaigner for LGBTQI rights and a transgender black man, who has worked alongside the British Red Cross, Opening Doors London, and FTM London, to name a few charities.

“My specific focus has always been to improve the lives of people within my communities. It was heart-breaking seeing people I know, who lived happy, comfortable and proud lives, having to go back into the closet to get dignified care and support in later life. That’s when I came up with the idea of Alternative Care Services.”
