Bluebird Care

Bluebird Care: The largest provider of private homecare services in the UK

A chance to work in a sector that brings both financial, personal and altruistic rewards as you and your team help the elderly and vulnerable in their own homes.

Established in 2004 and franchising just two years later, Bluebird Care started as a family-run business that has flourished into the UK’s single biggest and most successful private homecare service provider! We’ve gone from one lone company to over 220 of them, all part of our franchise network and providing over 1 million hours of care each month.

We have developed our prestigious brand over two decades and are still keen to take on new franchisees looking to gain financial and personal rewards in the increasingly in-demand homecare sector.

With its ageing population, the UK is crying out for more places to provide the care and support families loved ones so desperately need. Bluebird Care is at the forefront, and our reputation and standing only grows as more ambitious entrepreneurs such as you join our network.

Why Choose Bluebird Care?

Setting up on your own - in any business sector - is always risky, especially if you’re dipping your toe into an area in which you’ve no previous experience. But operating under a franchise brand with a nationwide reputation and over two decades of experience is a very different proposition.

Our effective business model and all our training, support and commitment to each franchise partners’ success make this the best opportunity you have to growing a successful company where you’re the boss.

At Bluebird Care, we genuinely care about the work we do. It’s what makes us stand out, as it’s always easier to work hard when you believe in what you do. We’re not offering just a chance to run a business; this is the opportunity to make a massive difference in the lives of thousands of people every day!

Bluebird Care’s more mature franchise partners enjoy up to £6 million in turnover, whereas an independent start-up begins at £250,000. Our territories typically provide as a minimum 100,000 - 200,000 potential residents.

The home is becoming the centre for healthcare which means now is the perfect time to start a business within this industry. With the strain on the NHS there always a need for the Government to support opportunities to reduce hospitalisations!

Bluebird Care is ranked in the Top 20 in the Elite Franchise Top 100 and is fully bfa (British Franchise Association) accredited. We provide homecare to the vulnerable and elderly throughout the UK. Our care teams make home visits and offer a range of domiciliary services. They keep the elderly and vulnerable living in the comfort and safety of their homes, which is precisely where anyone wants to stay! We strive to provide more than just care and our wide-ranging services and partnerships help us achieve that.

Once you’re established in providing core domiciliary care our franchise partners can also look to provide as an example, Live-in Care, Complex Care, Dementia Care and even Children’s services.
