Own a rewarding and profitable management franchise within the rapidly growing social care sector. With a SureCare franchise, you will be joining a leading provider of homecare with a proven track record.
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.
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
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%.

Our latest franchisee joins SureCare Corby & Northants
We’re pleased to announce details of the latest franchisee to join SureCare and complete their induction training, ahead of beginning operations in the territory of Corby & Northants. Here we introduce and get to know the newest addition to our growing nationwide network.
SureCare is dedicated to helping people up and down the country by providing vital care services in the comfort of their own homes. Thanks to our network of franchise operators, SureCare’s unique range of quality services are able to reach more and more people in different areas of the UK.
Today we’re delighted to say that our care and support services will soon be available for people in Corby and Northamptonshire (or better known locally as Northants). This comes as our latest franchise operator, Sahil Patpatia, gets the ball rolling for a new team of care workers ready and raring to get involved in the local community.
About Sahil
Before coming to SureCare, Sahil has experienced a varied career working in the security industry and the private transport sector. In each of his previous settings, he’s demonstrated how keen he is to learn and develop his knowledge, alongside growing his management skills.
More recently, Sahil has been feeling ready for a new challenge to expand his experience further in a way that greatly enriches and benefits the lives of others. This desire brought him to the care sector, which he has been extensively researching on his own and during discussions with a number of other home care franchisors.
Sahil ultimately chose SureCare as his preferred partner to pursue his goals of establishing and operating a home care business. Having discussed the opportunity with SureCare’s Franchise Recruitment Manager, Josh Farrer, Sahil felt confident that we could support him in his ambition to bring home care services to Corby & Northants.
Josh Farrer at SureCare Head Office said: “Having spent a lot of time with Sahil discussing the opportunity available to him at SureCare, I felt he was a perfect fit for our franchise network.”
“Sahil is confident, quick thinking and has an outgoing personality. I naturally warmed to him and feel he will have the same effect on the future team he will build for his care franchise. I look forward to watching Sahil progress in building a lucrative, quality led care business.”
Franchising with SureCare
The home care sector offers budding business owners the opportunity to operate in an industry that’s robust and resilient to the economic pressures. Over the last decade, the country has faced multiple periods of recession and of course the global pandemic. Where other businesses have struggled to weather the storms, demand for care and support services is ever-present and continues to grow.
With an ageing population, more and more of us are requiring additional support in later life. Hospital discharges are historically high as well, meaning that after care services are required more than ever before. SureCare is leading the way for providing this care to people in the comfort, security and familiarity of their own homes.
No previous experience in the care sector is required as all training is provided. Furthermore, our highly knowledgeable franchising team will be on hand to support you every step of the way. With over 50 franchisees in our network, we’re proven specialists in this unique industry that makes a real difference in people’s everyday lives.
If you have a strong desire to start up your own business in a lucrative industry that’s fast-paced and highly rewarding, speak to SureCare today about a potential franchising opportunity.
The reason I chose a home care franchise was for the support and to be known with a recognised brand, which we can then grow and develop in our own area
We chose a franchise because it gives support on time-consuming issues such as policy, procedures and legislation, so it left us free to provide care. When we started out eight years ago, we were the sole carers, as well as looking after the marketing the business. Today we have 60 staff providing care for more than 100 children and older people.
I started off as a carer and then worked as a manager in the office of a care franchise, so I chose a franchise when I decided to start my own business. Care is heavily regulated and when I started the regulations were in flux, so I wanted the support of a franchisor. I’ve now got about 100 service users and have built up a team of 40 staff. I need much less franchisor support now, but it’s always there if needed and I talk regularly with other franchisees. We swap tips, advice and ideas so the franchise comes with a useful network.
