Excellence Rewarded: Radfield Home Care Secures Princess Royal Training Award 2025

We are delighted to announce that Radfield Home Care has been recognised with the prestigious Princess Royal Training Award 2025.

This marks the second time our franchise partner onboarding and training has received this esteemed national recognition. As the only home care franchise on the 2025 recipient list, this award reinforces our leadership in private home care and highlights our dedication to developing strong franchise leadership.

Why This Matters for Your Franchise Journey

For those exploring franchising opportunities, the quality of initial training is the single biggest predictor of success. Receiving the Princess Royal Training Award is not just an accolade for our National Office; it is independent validation of the support you will receive as a partner.

This recognition assures you that:

  • Your Success is Structured: Our franchise partner onboarding and training is a proven, award-winning roadmap designed to take you from a novice to a confident business leader.
  • Risk is Reduced: You are joining a network where the systems for onboarding and compliance have been vetted by the highest standards in UK training.
  • You Are Never Alone: This award acknowledges our commitment to ongoing development, ensuring you have the knowledge to deliver the care people want as well as need, long after your launch day.

Excellence in Action

Our training programmes are central to our commitment to “Exceptional Care by Exceptional People.” By providing comprehensive onboarding, the programme ensures that every Radfield Home Care franchise is prepared to maintain the highest standards across our network.

On 2nd December 2025, Co-founder Alex Green had the honour of collecting the award from HRH The Princess Royal. He reflected on the achievement:

“This recognition means a great deal to us as an organisation. It is the result of the hard work and dedication of my sister and co-founder, Hannah MacKechnie, (QFP), and the remarkable team across our National Office and franchise network. Together, we continue to build Radfield Care with pride and purpose.”

Honouring Our Franchise Partners

We were particularly proud to celebrate this achievement alongside Lisa Cable, Franchise Partner for Havering & Romford and Brentwood & Basildon.

Lisa has been integral to Radfield Home Care since our early days, playing a key role in shaping our franchise network and supporting the development of high-quality care services. Her leadership and commitment showcase the calibre of individuals who drive our Be There movement, demonstrating the impact dedicated franchise partners can make on communities across the UK.

Supporting Our ‘Be There’ Movement

The Princess Royal Training Award reflects our ongoing commitment to the Be There movement, which underpins all that we do. By nurturing strong leadership within our franchise partners, we ensure that Care Professionals across our network are empowered to provide personalised home care. This enables people to age well, stay connected, and continue to enjoy a rewarding and fulfilling life at home.
