Caremark Franchise

A very proud night for Caremark🏆

At the Elite Franchise Top 100 Awards 2026, we were named Natalia Shvarts QFP Community Builder of the Year!

We are extremely proud of this win as it recognises our collective achievements in local communities across the UK.

In our 20th year, our commitment to communities came to life through Care for a Wish and 20 Acts of Care initiatives. Across the network, franchise owners and Franchise Support Centre teams gave their time, raised money, supported local causes, and created moments that genuinely mattered for customers and communities.

And those efforts took many forms. Just a few examples from across the year include over £13k raised for charity by our Franchise Support Centre team, over 300kg of essentials donated to families, countless volunteering hours given to causes that matter, and 20 of our wonderful customers granted their wish.

This award belongs to every person in the Caremark family who gives back with heart and takes pride in doing so. Thank you 💙

Thank you, Jodie Marsh and the whole Elite Franchise team, for a brilliant event.

Some news deserves the right moment. This was one of them. 💙

This photo is from the moment David Glover, Caremark’s CEO, told our network that Caremark has achieved 5 Star Franchise Owner Satisfaction.

Our 5-star recognition reflects above-average feedback across the areas that matter most when you are building a business:
🤝 Training and support
📈 Franchise system
💙 Culture and relationships
🗣️ Leadership
☺️ Overall satisfaction

On stage, David broke down the survey results. One example is the leadership score, which came in 15% above the industry average and 3% higher than last year, showing that our franchise owners feel strongly backed by the people leading the brand.

Conference is where you really feel the strength of the Caremark network, so it was the perfect place to share the news. It is also a live snapshot of what sits behind the rating, a model built on support, high standards and people who back each other.

What a night. Three Caremark offices celebrating their regional wins at the National finals of the Great British Care Awards🏆

Caremark Solihull - Home Care Employer Award

Caremark Liverpool with Nicole Kennedy - The Dignity in Care Award

Caremark Havering with Bal Bains - The Dementia Carer Award

An incredible evening was had, celebrating with all three teams, every other regional winner in the room, and the overall national winners.

This is what happens when people build businesses where the standard of care actually matters💙

Opportunity spotlight: Colchester💡

Colchester is a fast-growing city of just over 200,000 people, with more than 36,000 residents aged 65 and overmand an older population that has risen by more than a quarter since the last census.

For the right person, that is the foundation for a serious business. Start building local relationships now, and you can grow a Caremark business that is ready for the wave of demand that is already on its way.

Swipe through and ask yourself, could this be your territory to grow?

Few franchise brands can show you a network that genuinely feels like people who care about each other.

These photos are from our recent conference gala, and they capture the part that is hard to stage: franchise owners and our Support Centre team spending time together, laughing, talking, and building the kind of relationships that turn into real support when business gets busy.

Yes, there is serious business behind Caremark. But there is also genuine friendship, and it matters more than people realise.

Because when you are not doing it solo, you make better decisions, you keep your head clear, and you build a stronger business.

We are proud for that to be in our DNA.

Profit and purpose are not opposites. In home care, they rely on each other.

Profit funds quality. Quality builds trust. Trust drives growth. Growth sustains purpose.

That is exactly how we support franchise owners at Caremark. We help you build a business that performs commercially, while protecting what matters most: safe, consistent care and a team you are proud to lead.

If you can see yourself building something like this, take a look at franchise ownership with Caremark.

What happens when you stop treating “community initiatives” as PR and start treating them as part of how you do business

In his latest Franchise Diaries piece for Elite Franchise, Graham Precious, Franchise Owner of Caremark - Hull, East Riding, York, Selby & North Lincolnshire, shares how a simple Valentine’s food drive turned into something much bigger for his customers, community and team.

Beneath the story is a clear message for franchise owners and future franchise owners. If it looks like a promotion, people switch off. If it looks like care, people step forward.

This is what “supported from day one” sounds like.

Nitin Mahajan and Natasha Bij, franchise owners of Caremark Edinburgh, recently completed our 8-day induction. Listen to what they have to say about the experience.

Caremark’s training is built to make the start feel clear and confident, with a structured programme that covers the realities of running a high-quality home care service.

From compliance and operations to recruitment, finance, and local marketing, you are given the tools, systems, and guidance to launch well and grow well. Nothing is left to guesswork, and support does not end when induction does.

Press play and hear it firsthand.

“Support is not the same as saying yes to everything.”

In his new Elite Franchise article, Caremark CEO David Glover shares how he thinks about support as a CEO, what he looks for in our own teams, and the questions he would ask any franchisor if he were the one buying a territory.

If support is high on your list when you look at franchises, this is a must-read.

🔗 Read David’s full article on Elite Franchise: https://elitefranchisemagazine.co.uk/insight/item/behind-the-scenes-of-a-franchise-that-builds-support-from-the-inside-ou

The strongest franchise networks build support from the inside out, not from a page in a prospectus. If I were buying a franchise today, this is the support I would look for.

This is the kind of graph that should make you pause.

The UK’s 85+ population is projected to nearly double, from 1.7m to 3.3m. For home care, this means demand will only move in one direction. UP!

For the right franchise owner, that creates a rare opportunity: to build a local business with real stability behind it, while doing work that genuinely matters. Not a quick win sector. A serious, essential service where reputation, relationships, and consistency drive growth.

Caremark exists to help franchise owners build that kind of business, with the training, systems, and support that make growth feel confident, not chaotic.

⭐ 5 Stars… and a national win

This is what we mean when we say Caremark are not standing still!

Caremark has just been awarded 5 Star Franchisee Satisfaction for 2026 in the independent WorkBuzz survey of our franchise owners.

We have also been named the Winner of the Best Franchise Awards 2026 for Continuous Improvement. Our 2026 score is up again on previous years, which tells us our owners feel backed, listened to and supported to grow.

You cannot buy this result. To achieve and keep 5 Star status, franchisors have to meet strict participation criteria and resurvey regularly, so the focus stays on improving, not just celebrating once.

If Caremark is on your shortlist, this is the kind of proof you want before you make a decision.
