Who We Are

Built by a woman who believes in her community

Luleka Cares (Pty) Ltd was established in 2023, proudly owned by a previously disadvantaged black woman entrepreneur. We started in catering, farming and construction before growing into a focused nursing and caregiver training institution.

Today we are a training home for people across KwaZulu-Natal — from Umzimkhulu to Underberg — who want a real, respected qualification and the practical skill to back it up.
