Are you looking for one of the UK’s top care franchises?
Our first franchisees followed the business model, took our guidance, applied their skills and grew from zero to £1m turnover in year 1*.
Future stability | Deep rewards | Generous returns
Starting a business caring for people at home answers an urgent need in society, making this a stable, growing sector, one largely immune to political and economic turmoil. Better yet, advancing tech and AI presents a huge opportunity for your new business, rather being a threat.
It’s human-to-human, benefitting people throughout your local community, where working with passion, following a proven business model and applying sound values delivers real rewards.
What MATTERS most
We live by focusing on what matters most, with a wonderful caring culture that franchisees have embraced for their local businesses too.
As franchisor we are a multi-generational family team, providing franchisees a real breadth and depth of experience, a pure passion for care and stability for the network’s future.
- Build your business following one of the very best models. A reputation for excellence – our template operation is rated in the top 2% of care providers by the CQC.
- By taking care of the little details that really matter to our clients, a culture embraced across the network, franchisees also enjoy 28% of business coming through referrals.
- Target a wide mix of private clients, avoiding the pressures of functional local authority care.
- Franchisees enjoy direct access to the family’s huge breadth of skills, knowledge and experience to grow their business.
- No industry experience needed. If neither you or your business partner have industry experience, employ a registered manager to nurture the care portion of your business.
- Established in 2005 and launched as a franchise in 2021, we still have prime undeveloped territories available across the UK.
People just like YOU
The CareYourWay franchise is a perfect route to building your own business in the care sector, and we welcome business partnerships too! In fact, our most successful franchisees combine an astute commercial-minded partner with a passionate people-person, someone who wants to lead from the front.
I feel like I’m never disconnected from Head Office: if there’s anything I ever need, I’m always able to call them. They have repeatedly told me that they’re only a phone call away, and they’ve proven it. It’s genuinely the best support I’ve ever seen.
In our first financial year, we reached £1,000,000 turnover, and I just can’t believe it. We’ve changed thousands of lives so far, all made possible by Head Office. We wouldn’t be here without them
Support from Head Office is amazing. Next to none. We meet with Michelle weekly which is fantastic – we’re following an amazing process with a great and clear direction. We’ve never been in this industry, so it’s all extremely valuable.
Head Office are amazing. I can literally ring at any time. It really puts that warmth into you knowing that you’ve got that support. You know you can do anything because you’ve got Head Office behind you.
Care is hard work and carries a lot of responsibility, we don’t believe you can succeed in this sector without ‘caring’ and that brings its own stresses. With a business partner and all of us at head office, you won’t ever be alone on this business journey.
Investment + Returns
The total initial investment varies from £80k - £130k depending on your business plan.

CareYourWay Launches in Alton, Farnham & Farnborough with a Warm Community Welcome!
CareYourWay’s launch event in Alton brought the community together to celebrate the new family-led home care service, with support from local organisations and fun activities.
Another Incredible Milestone Reached
CareYourWay, a family-run home care service, is now open in Alton, Farnham, and Farnborough, offering warm, compassionate care to people in the comfort of their own homes.
Led by Richard, Tracey, and Rachel, CareYourWay is built on values of kindness, dignity, and care that feels personal. With decades of experience in healthcare, business, and frontline services, the team’s mission is to support people in a way that feels heartfelt and truly individual.
A Heartwarming Opening
The launch event in Alton was a wonderful success, bringing together local residents, supporters, and partners for a day filled with community spirit. Special guests, including Town Mayor Annette Eyre, Karen from Dementia Friendly Alton, and Kerry from Age UK Surrey, were there to show their support for the new service.
Guests enjoyed tea, coffee, and an afternoon tea spread, served by Tracey’s son Josh and friend Ian. After everyone had settled in, the Mayor gave a speech, marking the official opening of CareYourWay, a proud and emotional moment for the family.
The afternoon also included a community raffle, generously supported by local businesses, and a fun game of bingo with chocolate egg prizes. One of CareYourWay’s companionship clients even won twice in the raffle, enjoying the afternoon with her daughter and son-in-law.
The event ended with a beautiful live performance by Marlow, who also works with Dementia Friendly Alton, leaving everyone uplifted and full of joy. In the spirit of giving back, the team raised £150 for Dementia Friendly Alton, a cause close to their hearts.
The family expressed their deep gratitude to everyone who came and supported them. The warmth they felt during the day truly reminded them of the importance of the work they do.
Meet the Family Behind the Care
The CareYourWay team is a close-knit family with a shared vision of providing truly personal care.
Richard brings a wealth of experience in business leadership, offering calm, focus, and a dedication to ensuring every client feels valued and respected in their own home.
Tracey’s background in retail management, the Hampshire Police force, and the ambulance service gives her a deep understanding of people’s needs and the importance of community support. Her compassionate, reassuring presence is central to the team’s approach.
Rachel, their daughter, has 18 years of experience in the care sector. Her passion for helping others started at a young age and has only grown stronger over the years, especially since becoming a mother herself. This has deepened her empathy and understanding in her care approach.
Together, they are committed to delivering the kind of care they would want for their own loved ones, thoughtful, flexible, and focused on the little things that matter most.
Now Here to Support the Community
CareYourWay is ready to support those living in Alton, Farnham, and Farnborough, offering a range of services, from companionship to personal care. The team is dedicated to providing care with kindness, understanding, and a genuine commitment to meeting each person’s individual needs.
For families seeking reliable support and individuals wanting to stay independent at home while feeling truly cared for, Richard, Tracey, Rachel, and their team are here to help.
