Being shortlisted for the Management category is a reflection of the culture we’ve built together. Our leadership isn’t top-down, but collaborative and empowering. Our Head Office team works closely with every franchise partner, providing the tools, guidance, and encouragement they need to build thriving, values-led home care businesses. At GoodOaks, we believe that great management means leading with care. We listen, support, and adapt to ensure every franchise owner feels confident, capable, and part of something bigger.

Earlier this year, we were honoured to receive the 5★ Franchisee Satisfaction Award from WorkBuzz, based entirely on feedback from our franchise network. The results spoke volumes about the strength of our relationships and the trust within our community.

Ben Ashton, Co-Founder of GoodOaks Homecare, said: 

“We’ve always believed that the true strength of our brand lies in the people who build it with us – those people are our franchise partners. The 5★ award wasn’t a marketing exercise; it was real feedback, independently gathered by WorkBuzz, and it confirmed what we see every day. A network built on respect, trust, and shared purpose.”

This new nomination builds on that achievement, recognising the same values that make our network so strong. They are clear communication, supportive leadership, and genuine care for the people we work with.

At GoodOaks, we don’t just help our partners run successful businesses, we help them create a lasting difference in their communities. Our collaborative culture, robust training, and ongoing support mean you’re never on your own.

If you’re looking to build a business that balances commercial success with compassion and purpose, we’d love to hear from you. Find out more about joining our award-winning franchise network today.
