With that in mind be careful how many ties to the UK you might be creating as it may invalidate your future non-resident status. Especially if the family decide to move home. I think as it stands now someone in that situation would only be allowed about 23 days in the UK per year before being classed as residential - and a layover would be interpreted as 2 of those days.
Food for thought. Challenging times ahead.
Many thanks for your input. Will investigate further.
