Friends Helping at Home: Redefining home support franchising
Friends Helping at Home is a family business that has grown into a trusted and well-established provider across Devon and Somerset. Our success has been built on strong relationships, exceptional service and a genuine commitment to supporting people to live independently, creating a proven foundation for franchisees to replicate in their own communities.
Why choose Friends Helping at Home?
Founded in 2018, we’ve built a franchise model that puts people and choice first. By combining a relationship-led approach with a flexible introductory agency model, we’ve created a business that delivers meaningful support to clients while offering franchisees a scalable, commercially attractive opportunity.
People first
At Friends Helping at Home, people are at the heart of everything we do. From our personalised franchisee onboarding and ongoing support to carefully matching clients with the right self-employed service providers, we believe lasting relationships deliver the best outcomes. It’s a people-first culture that runs through every part of our business.
A different approach to home support
Our unique introduction model sets us apart in a crowded care market. By building a trusted network of self-employed service providers, we give clients greater choice over who supports them, while allowing service providers the flexibility to choose work that suits them. The result is a model built on choice, trust and fairness for everyone involved.
Simple, scalable and commercially smart
As an introductory agency, our franchisees are not required to register with the CQC, reducing regulatory complexity while operating with robust onboarding, vetting and safeguarding processes. Combined with a self-employed network, this creates a lean business model with lower employment overheads and greater potential to scale.
A proven franchise with real support
We’ve built a successful and growing franchise network by combining industry expertise with practical support. From comprehensive training and bespoke systems to ongoing mentoring and marketing, we’re committed to helping every franchisee build a thriving business.
Growing demand, long-term opportunity
The UK’s ageing population continues to increase demand for high-quality home support. More people than ever want to remain independent in their own homes, creating a resilient, long-term market for compassionate, community-based services.
