After seeing 100s of franchises, he chose Radfield – Rob’s 1st month with the franchise
If you missed the last couple of emails, you might have noticed the picture at the bottom of these emails has changed from Rob’s boyish good looks to my more distinguished face. You will also have missed some of the biggest and most important news for the Radfield Home Care franchise this year.

My name is John, and I have taken over from Rob Dancy as your main contact for everything to do with Radfield as Rob has decided to move on… and become a Radfield Home Care franchise partner himself!

After 2 decades spent ringside in franchising and helping others to find the perfect opportunity to transform their lives, he’s decided it was his time to shine by embracing a bright new future of his own.

As of 3rd November, he is now the proud owner of Radfield Home Care Tarporley & Mid Cheshire! It’s been incredible this last year or so to hear from Rob how his whole perspective has shifted since he started working as a consultant for Radfield, finally deciding to start a whole new chapter in his life.

It’s been a hugely positive move for Rob, but also a really big deal for the Radfield franchise. Not only have they gained yet another great franchise partner, but also one who is deeply knowledgeable about franchises – and has chosen them from among the 100s of brands he is familiar with.

You’d be hard pushed to find a more glowing and heartfelt recommendation for a franchise than that! Read more about Rob’s decision here: How a change in mindset changed everything…
Now I am happy to share that Rob has passed his first major milestone as the newest addition to the Radfield Home Care family.
Rob with his new Care Manager, plus Reggie the Bear – both critical parts of the new team!

Radfield’s core philosophy of always “Being There” for people doesn’t just cover their clients and service users, it extends to their franchisees, too. They’ll be offering Rob an incredible amount of support throughout his time as their partner, but most especially during the next few critical months as he gets his business firmly off the ground.

Thanks to their extensive experience spanning more than 40 years in the care industry, Radfield have created the perfect roadmap for new partners to replicate their success.

The first is now in the bag – hiring a registered Care Manager, the first major recruitment decision, and one which will set the tone for everything to come. The next big step will be to learn Radfield’s approach to attracting quality carers.

We’ll be following Rob over the next few months as he hits milestone after milestone, and will be sure to share with you all the key moments as he leads the new go-to team in his region for high-quality, truly person-centric care.

If Rob’s story so far has sparked something in you – that feeling that maybe it’s your time to make a change, too – I’d love to hear from you.
Sometimes all it takes is a conversation to see whether a Radfield Home Care franchise could be the right next chapter for you.
