A recession-resistant quality home care franchise
The Good Oaks Home Care franchise package provides franchising opportunities across the whole of the UK, offering ownership of specific territories to each franchisee. Our existing franchises have achieved fantastic success, so you can benefit from a fully operational franchising model which is proven to work.
The home care market is constantly growing, particularly since the outbreak of COVID-19 and due to an aging population, and is estimated to be worth over £8 billion per year. There’s never been a better time to start a home care franchise, and Good Oaks Home Care is here to help you along every step of the journey.
You don’t need any medical training or a background in care giving to start a home care franchise, and it’s one of the most rewarding business models there are as you’ll be helping local people receive the care they need whilst maintaining the independence they want.
Be part of the UK’s top homecare business which provides the full spectrum of home care services, from visiting and live-in care to speciality care for those with mental health and physical health disabilities. We have been operating as a care franchise business since 2011 and provide a premium care service to the elderly. Contact Good Oaks Home Care Franchising today.
How much do home care franchises make?
Home care franchises can be very profitable, and our first home care operation had a seven figure turnover within the first three years. We estimate that your initial investment into your home care agency franchise will be around £30,000 and that you will break even in under 12 months. Once established, net profitability of 20% is possible. Find out more about the financials here.

Franchise Fit?
Take the Good Oaks test
A home care franchise, like any other business, requires careful business planning, financial management, concerted marketing and dedication to recruiting and nurturing a committed workforce.
Investing in and running a care agency franchise requires particular qualities, skills and priorities to ensure long-term success.
Some people are excellent business people, but would struggle with working within a franchise network, while others value the support and proven structure that the franchisor can provide. Others may not be in a position where they can commit fully, either in terms of time, money or
effort.

Take the QuizCare agency franchise or independent?
Choosing to start a home care franchise rather than an independent homecare business has many benefits which enable franchisees to see much quicker success:
- It’s often easier to qualify for funding when starting a franchise company, with banks recognising the past success and financial stability of the franchise business and therefore more willing to lend between 50 and 70 percent of the total investment required
- Franchisees have the added benefit of support and marketing efforts from the main franchise business. They also benefit from the instant brand recognition of being an established business
- Independent companies hold much more risk and many fail within the first two years of operation. Franchising takes that stress away
