Who We Are

Respond Recruitment is a dual sector Healthcare and Education recruitment agency who provide both temporary and permanent staff to nursing homes, residential homes, schools, academies and specialist SEND units.

We supply a variety of qualified and non-qualified staff including Nurses, Healthcare Assistants, Teachers, Teaching assistants and SEND support staff.

Our Franchise Concept

You will benefit from being part of two of the most in demand recruitment sectors in the UK, both complementing each other to allow you benefit from year round growth. The population of England and Wales has continued to age, with the recent Census confirming there are more people than ever before in older age groups. This has resulted in healthcare organisations seeing an increased need for nursing and healthcare workers who can work on a flexible basis. Education follows a similar trend with school spending on supply teacher agencies jumping by a fifth in three years as MPs warn that the Government has no long-term strategy to address teacher shortages.

 

Recruiting for Year Round Growth

Running a recruitment business in each sector separately will give you access to a huge market place and the opportunity for healthy earning potential. By combining the two, you will be in a situation every business owner wants to be in: high demand for services throughout the year with stability and a healthy sustainable income.

The need for healthcare staff is typically much higher during the school holiday periods. Conversely, the demand for teaching and education staff reduces.

The Respond healthcare and education dual model franchise ensures that there are no peaks, no troughs, just a constant demand for compliant experienced and flexible healthcare and education professionals from a growing customer base of public and private sector organisations.

 

No Regulatory Hold-ups

Although we align our services to the standards set out by CQC and OFSTED, as an agency we are not directly governed by these regulatory bodies. This means that you can start trading immediately in your territory with no hold-ups to growth.

Ready Made Business

In addition, we have already secured national contracts with a number of large care home groups and education organisations in both the public and private sector. This means that you will have a certain amount of ‘readymade business’ which will help you get things off the ground quickly.

 

A Business Model for Those Who Care

We believe true job satisfaction comes from a desire to make a difference to people’s lives. By investing in a franchise whose main focus is the sourcing and provision of the best education and healthcare recruitment candidates in your assigned territory, you will achieve this sense of fulfilment.

 

Support Every Step of The Way

Whilst we are not there to run your business, we can guide you through the sometimes ‘choppy waters’ on your journey to success. Remember – we have made the mistakes already and learnt from them so you don’t have to!

Care Franchises

Residential Care Homes

According to the UK governments care homes study 30th November 2017 the care homes sector is worth around £15.9 billion a year, with around 410,000 residents. They calculate that there are 5,500 different care service providers in the UK operating 11,300 care homes for the elderly. Approx 95% of their beds are provided by the independent sector (both for-profit & charities ). Government local authorities generally commission care services from independent care providers. On average the cost for a self-funder in 2016 was £846 per week (nearly £44,000 per year), while Local authorities paid around £621 per week.

Domestic Care

UKHCA estimate that total local authority expenditure on domiciliary care services in the UK in 2014/15 was £3.9 billion. As personalisation or self-directed support policy progresses nationally,the uptake of direct payments has increased. UKHCA estimate that totallocal authority expenditure on direct payments in the UK in 2014/15 was £1.5 billion. There has been a trend in England over recent years for NHS Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCG) to purchase social care and health services from the independent and voluntary sector. In 2014/15 total CCG expenditure on non-NHS care services was £2.3 billion. At this time we do not have more detailed expenditure analysis available or domiciliary care specific expenditure data. Data on expenditure by people who self-fund their care is sparse. UKHCA estimate that expenditure on domiciliary care by self-funders in 2014/15 was £713 million.

With this very large and apparently growing sector there are many different opportunities to start a business with a domestic & care home franchise, providing care in peoples homes via a home care franchise or domiciliary care franchise or setting up a residential care home franchise business.
