Build a Legacy: Franchisee Launches Second Territory, Sets Sights on Third

Build A Business With Purpose

Radfield Home Care: A franchise which offers long-term demand, strong support and meaningful impact.

If you've ever wanted to run a business that changes lives - not just balance sheets - Radfield Home Care offers the perfect opportunity. Backed by award-winning training, practical support and a proven business model, this is a franchise designed to help you start, scale and succeed with clarity and confidence as you help older people to live independently and stay connected to what matters most.

Your Journey with Radfield: Experts in the Business of Care™

Backed by 40 years’ experience at the heart of the UK care industry, Radfield Home Care has stood as a beacon of genuine human connection for loved ones and their families. However, this opportunity is not just about our exceptional legacy; it's about what this legacy means for you.

Radfield's story begins in the caring professions: founded independently by siblings Dr Hannah MacKechnie (a qualified GP) and Alex Green (finance and business) but built on a family legacy that started with a residential home in Shrewsbury.

From the outset, their purpose was clear - not just to provide care, but to create a business founded on compassion, community connection and genuine human relationships.

This is a family-centred business built on compassion and community, which perfectly balances commercial success with it’s Be There™ movement, when it’s most important. However, this is about more than just building a business. It’s an investment in becoming the person you want to be; a business leader who can deliver real, meaningful community impact.

You’ll become part of a nationwide community of business owners united by a shared goal: to make ageing a more positive experience.

Build a Legacy: Franchisee Launches Second Territory, Sets Sights on Third

November 14, 2024

When your ambition meets outstanding support, success follows. That's what happened for this franchise partner who has expanded into a second territory with Radfield Home Care.

Meet Matthew Nutting, Radfield Home Care franchisee for Harrogate, Wetherby and North Yorkshire, and new owner of the Ilkley, Skipton and Otley territory.

Matthew, and his wife, Natalie, are very well-established in the Radfield Home Care franchise and are considered one of their most successful ownership teams.

Matthew first joined the franchise back in 2018, leaving behind a long career in the NHS culminating in his role as a Clinical Manager - supporting Occupational Therapists in the community. Like so many who benefit from joining a care franchise like this one, he was looking for a new career which could fulfil both his goals of creating a legacy for himself and his family, and doing more to help those most in need in his community.

He looked at a number of franchises during this time but, when he discovered Radfield Home Care, he immediately felt he shared their goals and values.

A business that champions exceptional care

“From the very beginning, I could see that Radfield understood the value of every person in their network – their skills, experience and background – not just the value of their investment, and that extends to how they enable us to provide quality care, too.” Matthew told us when we spoke to him. “It’s about building something which is properly embedded in the local community, and not just a corporate machine churning out care.”

“It’s about people looking after people.”

The combination of Matthew’s skills and experience, and the extensive expertise and support at the heart of the Radfield Home Care franchise, have been a real recipe for success. Together, they have created a rewarding business with built-in scalability and stable revenue, but still maintained the core values which make it so special.

With his second territory now up and running, Matthew is already starting to look at a third sometime in 2025. Matthew also recently won the "Number One Employer" at the "Your Harrogate Radio Local Hero Awards", for which he was nominated by his own team, proving it's not just his franchisor, he knows he can count on, but also everyone working with him.

We wish you the best of luck, Matthew, and can’t wait to see everything you’ll achieve!

So, what advice can Matthew offer those just starting out on their care franchise journey?

“Follow the vision and values first, and the money will follow! Set off with the right intentions and focus on the bigger picture, don’t just chase easy contracts and money. Be clear about your mission, look after your staff and service users well, and the rest will fall into place.

“It’s all about family. Treating everyone in your care, or your employ, the way you would want yourself or a loved one to be treated. Even though we are expanding, we will never lose that commitment. We are a local care company staffed by local people. From the community, for the community. That’s exactly what Radfield is all about, too.”

Could you be the next big Radfield Home Care success story?
