Right at Home Annual Conference Showcases the Power of its Network

Right at Home’s Annual Conference took place in Cheshire last week, bringing together Franchise Owners from across the UK for two days of inspiration, collaboration, and celebration.

Hosted at Mottram Hall, the event provided Franchise Owners with the opportunity to exchange best practices, celebrate achievements, and explore the exciting opportunities within an evolving homecare sector.

This year’s theme, New Frontiers, reflected Right at Home’s ambition to continue leading the way in the private homecare market. The agenda was designed to challenge and inspire our network with fresh thinking, drawing parallels with the limitless potential of space exploration.

A Growing Network & Shared Mission

The Annual Conference is a flagship event in Right at Home’s calendar, offering Franchise Owners the chance to step back from their day-to-day operations and connect with fellow business leaders who share the same values and goals. Sessions included compelling talks, panel discussions and workshops covering everything from overseas recruitment to using technology to attract and retain Clients.

Keynote speaker R. Michael Anderson, an accomplished leadership coach, encouraged attendees to embrace new opportunities and navigate change with confidence. Other highlights included an address from Heather Wehrle, Director of Operations, who unveiled exciting developments in our in-house marketing offering and introduced a first look at our brand refresh. We were also proud to raise £2600 for our friends and charity partner at Dementia Adventure.

CEO of Right at Home UK, Lucy Campbell, opened the conference by reflecting on the network’s achievements over the past 12 months and reaffirming its strategic direction:

Lucy Campbell said:

"While these times are both exciting and challenging, our collective strength is more apparent than ever. Our annual conference provided a valuable platform for our Franchise Owners from across the country to connect, share expertise, and inspire one another. We were honoured to welcome so many members of our esteemed network and celebrate the incredible difference they make. Through collaborative exchange and mutual support, we are committed to continually raising standards and ensuring the highest quality of care for communities throughout the UK."

Celebrating Success Across the Network

The conference also saw the return of the Right at Home Celebration Awards, which shine a spotlight on the dedication and excellence of Franchise Owners, Carers, and Registered Managers across the UK. With ten award categories, the evening gala dinner was a chance to reflect on the incredible impact our offices are making in their communities.
