SureCare is an award winning care franchise with over 30 years' industry experience. We offer prospective franchisees the opportunity to manage and run their very own multi-revenue stream care business with the brand, support structure, training and business tools that we provide.

When you own a SureCare franchise, you are in business for yourself, but never by yourself. The quality of care we deliver to our customers is matched only by the quality of support and guidance we provide to all of our franchise owners.

Established in 1994, SureCare has grown to become one the UK's most trusted and leading care service providers. We provide a range of outstanding support to families, with services including personal care, companionship and home support to elderly individuals, as well as to adults and children living with disabilities. We provide an invaluable service which allows people to remain at home in their family surroundings, enjoying a comfortable and enhanced quality of life, as opposed to moving into a specialist care setting or retirement home.


What really makes SureCare unique is the huge variety of services we make available to families, including; companionship care, home help for adults and children, personal care, domestic babysitting services, as well as the ability to deliver more specialised care services such as children’s mobile crèche provision for domestic and commercial clients, respite care, hospice care and end of life care to name just a few.

The Market

Our society is witnessing a period of demographic change as our ageing population is increasingly rapidly. Care services in the home are growing in demand, so much that the current UK home care market value stands at a staggering £6bn, with two thirds of this being spent on care for the over 65s.

At SureCare, we offer a wise investment into a growing market. We offer our franchisees the opportunity to create their own successful businesses in one of the fastest growing sectors in the UK, offering both financial rewards and the knowledge that you are providing an invaluable service to your local community.

One of the most compelling reasons to invest in a SureCare franchise is the multiple revenue streams that our franchisees can benefit from, due to the comprehensive package of care and support services offered by the company. From personal care to help with household chores, SureCare operators can deliver a wide range of services to meet the needs of any individual.

Who We Look For

You don't necessarily need to have any previous care experience to run a profitable SureCare franchise. As a management franchise, the ideal candidates will be:

• Hard working
• Have excellent people skills
• And possess the skills and capabilities to manage and lead others.

In addition to this, we also look for individuals who are compassionate and committed to making a positive difference in the lives of others, and within the wider community.

Many of SureCare’s franchisees over the years have come from different backgrounds and careers, but all of them share the same passions and objectives – to build a successful business and to provide a meaningful service that helps to enrich the lives of clients under their care.

Training and Support

We need our franchisees to have the knowledge and confidence to be able to deliver excellent customer service from day one.

That’s why all of our franchisees must complete our week-long intensive induction course as part of the overall onboarding process, prior to commencement of trading. During the induction, you’ll meet with key figures in our National Operations team at our Head Office in Chester, Cheshire.

In addition to the initial induction, we offer ongoing training, mentoring, and fantastic levels of support in key areas of:

• Business development
• Finances
• Operations
• Recruitment
• Marketing

As care is a regulated industry, you’ll also be required to undergo registration with the national regulatory body and keep on top of compliance with the relevant policies, procedures and best practices. This is where our expertise in care operations can support and guide you towards success.

You will be also able to take advantage of the SureCare central marketing support – including branded marketing literature, merchandise, website and online resources, PR, business stationery and more – from the beginning, which are often beyond the reach of a typical start-up business.

Investment

There is an initial investment required to start a sustainable SureCare franchise. The amount will vary to some degree, depending on the size and location of your chosen franchise territory area, as well as the ownership of the office premises you operate from.

Our franchise fee is £39,500 (ex. VAT). However, the total investment amount required typically ranges between £100,000 - £130,000. This amount includes the franchise fee, as well as the working capital you’ll need to keep your business running in the early months.

Our Franchise Recruitment Manager will discuss funding with you in more detail, and once we have jointly established the true capital requirement, we can then discuss how this capital is raised and deployed.

Whatever that amount may be, you will be expected to contribute 30% of that amount as direct cash from your own resources. Over the years, SureCare has established strong relationships with several High Street banks, who can support you with a business loan for the remainder of the total investment amount.

The Numbers

Our franchise offices are extremely successful and have enjoyed sustained growth. A number of franchise owners have reported turnover levels in excess of 1,000,000 per annum.

We aim for new franchisees to break even within 12 months of operation, although this can vary based on different factors like a franchise’s individual performance and following our guidance closely. We would expect an established office to achieve net profits (before franchise owner earnings and franchise costs) of 15-20%.
