An increasingly diverse population of older people raises important challenges around how older migrants’ care needs are addressed. To deepen our understanding of migrants’ care relationships and experiences, we introduce a novel conceptual framework, ‘transnational care convoys’, which combines insights from convoys of care and transnational theories. Drawing on 77 qualitative interviews with older migrants in Spain and England, we demonstrate how the care networks (convoys) of older migrants involve the interplay of formal and informal relationships, physical and virtual co-presence, and socio-ethnic practices and relations, both across borders and within the country of settlement
