As demand for quality homecare continues to rise across the UK, one franchise network has been quietly building the foundations to meet it.

GoodOaks Homecare recently brought together more than 70 Franchise Partners and Registered Managers from across the country for its Annual Conference, themed around Scaling Excellence. The network has recorded four Good and one Outstanding CQC inspection results so far in 2026.

The conference, held at The Swan at Streatley, brought together representatives from across the network for a day of learning, collaboration and discussion. Attendees heard from keynote speaker Katie Bland on Strategic Relationship Building, alongside specialist sessions covering recruitment, compliance, technology and business growth. Roundtable discussions explored AI in care, recruitment and retention, and regulatory developments across the sector.

Ben Ashton, Co-Founder of GoodOaks Homecare, said:

“Events like this matter because homecare is a people business, and the challenges facing our sector are ones we're better equipped to tackle together. Workforce pressures, recruitment and retention, the role of technology and AI, compliance and sustainable business growth are all conversations our network is having openly and honestly. The more we share, learn from one another and raise our standards collectively, the better the experience is for the clients and families we're all here to support."

Founded by a former frontline carer, GoodOaks Homecare has grown into a national franchise network while maintaining a strong focus on care quality, compliance and the development of its Franchise Partners. The business supports Franchise Partners to build sustainable, locally rooted homecare businesses backed by established systems, training and operational support.

As the homecare sector continues to evolve, GoodOaks remains focused on raising standards, supporting the people who deliver care and helping more people across the UK to live well at home.
