New Franchise Openings From Leading UK Home Care Provider Guardian Angel Carers

Expanding nationwide UK home care company, Guardian Angel Carers, requests interested parties to enquire about franchise opportunities in vacant territories

Guardian Angel Carers, a nationwide home care company providing domiciliary, specialist and live-in care services has announced its intention to welcome further franchisees to apply for available home care franchise territories, meeting the demand for high-quality home care services and responding to shortages in several key regions.

The home care company first established in 2012, has grown significantly in the intervening years, with a current network that spans 16 territories, each independently owned and managed and supported by the central franchise development team.

Changing Demand for Professional UK Home Care Support

Demand is undoubtedly a contributing factor to the expansion of the UK home care sector, where changes in the population and awareness of alternatives to permanent residential care homes are driving more enquiries than ever before:

• By 2024, the Office of National Statistics predicts that 24% of the population will be 65 or above, with over 50% of people in that age bracket living with poor health experiencing at least one ongoing health condition.
• Roughly 35% of people living with poor health over 65 report that they feel lonely and isolated, while 98% of home care recipients agree that this support has improved their quality of life.
• Conditions such as dementia and cancer are becoming more frequently diagnosed, and 97% of people needing care say they would prefer to remain at home rather than moving into residential care accommodation.
• This is coupled with ongoing availability shortages within the public sector and long waiting times for care assessments, with over 430,000 people waiting for care plan reviews, according to the English regulator's 2023 State of Care Report.

Many families, individuals and couples are opting to use private home care without any need to wait for formalised assessments or means testing and often immediate access to visiting care or respite support.

The Success of the Home Care Franchise Model

Franchise structures have become more prevalent in recent years, where organisations recognise the importance of local management to tailor service-based businesses to the demographics and needs of their clients and customers yet benefit from the expertise, business modelling and capacity of a central advisory team.

Guardian Angel Carers publishes case studies and financial projections for franchise applicants to review, and although these may vary based on actual performance, the operational support, marketing and recruitment assistance, and knowledge of the regulatory environment provide a strong foundation for growth.

Ex-Olympian, Founder and CEO, Christina Handasyde Dick OLY MBE says ‘Along with all of the Guardian Angel Carers head office team, I am incredibly proud of the difference our franchisees and CareAngel teams around the UK have made to their local communities, focused on our guiding principle to always look at how we can do things better.

We set out to deliver home care in a way that was entirely person-first, ensuring every client feels comfortable, safe, supported and independent, with assistance from local carers who provide help with the same respect they would care for a much-loved family member.

As the group has grown, we have been pleased to invite new prospective franchise owners to consult with our team, evaluating growth potential, the increasingly high demand in various regions, and how values-based care has proven to be not just successful and valued but also a profitable and long-term business investment.’

Available Home Care Territories for Franchisee Applicants

Guardian Angel Carers appraises franchisee applicants based on several criteria, including their commitment to upholding high-quality standards, their approach to delivering care that is both personalised and respectful, and whether they embrace the same values that underpin the Guardian Angel Carers brand.

Currently, the group has franchise branches operating in the following regions and areas:

• Berkshire: Reading.
• Greater London: Wimbledon.
• Hampshire: Eastleigh and Hedge End and Fareham and Gosport.
