BLOSSOM IS GENUINELY DIFFERENT TO OTHER CARE BRANDS
JUST A BLOOMIN’ GOOD FRANCHISE
Founded by a wealthy Yorkshire farm owner when his elders needed extra care, the business initially grew in the North East of England and now has franchisees dotted all across the UK.
WHAT ELSE MAKES THE BLOSSOM FRANCHISE DIFFERENT?
NOT ALL FRANCHISEES ARE EQUAL!
We’ve learnt a lot since we started offering the business model as a franchise...
To be successful with your own Blossom Home Care business you need to be money-motivated, commercially minded and happy to challenge. You won’t succeed unless you can manage people and you will need a genuine compassion for your clients and their loved ones.
You’ll need to insist on delivering first-class care, paying your carers the most and investing in marketing to grow your business. Get this right and you will scale up quickly.
We would love you to have your second office in year two/three and third office by year four/five, but the timing is up to you. Either way; follow the model, take the guidance and advice provided and you should end up with a sizeable asset that you can sell in the future.
#we offer no guarantees of success
THE BLOSSOM BUSINESS JOURNEY
The total initial investment is typically in the region of £90k. However, the high street banks will loan up to 50% of this total (subject to status). So, you could start your new business with as little as £45k, potentially from savings, family money or a re-mortgage.
You need to start with the aim of building a large multi-office care business, a valuable asset that once established can deliver a very healthy income stream and excellent work/life balance.

Who wants to be a franchisee? I do, says Blossom Home Care’s Franchise Manager
She’s about to run Blossom’s new venture in Harrogate – and she’s retaining her role as Franchise Manager.
Alongside Blossom’s co-founders John and Fiona Leggott, Carri’s the driving force behind the network’s expansion and is responsible for helping franchisees adhere to the proven and highly successful business model.
As one of the main points of contact for franchisees, Carri spends her time supporting and encouraging them – and, as a result, she knows everything there is to know about being a Blossom Home Care franchisee.
So the fact that she’s putting her own money and time into becoming a franchisee herself is testament to the strength of the Blossom business model.
“I couldn’t resist it,” says Carri. “I’d know better than anybody if it were a bad investment or a poor business model, so I’m putting my money where my mouth is and can’t wait to get started..”
Like Blossom co-founder Fiona, Carri served more than 20 years in the home-care sector before joining Blossom - and she didn’t like what she saw.
“I knew there had to be a better way of delivering care,” she says. “I can’t even find words to describe some of the things I witnessed.
“Then I discovered Blossom and realised it had found a solution to the problems that used to make care-in-the-home such a misery for clients and carers.
“Instead of whistlestop appointments that don’t give the carer enough time to achieve very much – and certainly don’t give them time to deliver proper, human, personal care – Blossom insists on home-care visits of at least 50 minutes.
“That means carers have time to give the client the help they need as well as having a chat over a cup of tea if they wish – and because Blossom also pays its carers better, they stay loyal to the company and get the job satisfaction they joined the sector for.
“Blossom’s special, too, for offering its services in areas that are too sparsely populated to interest the corporate care companies.”
With such a huge job already as Franchise Manager, Carri will be opening the Harrogate franchise with her partner Darren, who’s giving up his career to support her new venture.
And Carri admits, with a laugh, that she has no intention of stepping away from her role in the network she’s helped to build as she loves to be there to see things are done to the very high standards she sets and upholds.
“I’m so looking forward to becoming a franchisee,” she says. “Franchisees put such a lot of trust in the people who run the network they buy into, so it will be good for my fellow franchisees to see that I, too, have great faith in the business model and want to be a part of it, just like them.”
