Cath Chalton, Home Instead franchisee
“I am co-owner of Home Instead Senior Care, Wirral. My husband and I have been franchisees since 2006. We have great support from our franchisor and from our franchise network, though we really feel the benefit of being a bfa franchisee member completes our support network. From being members we have been able to network with other franchisees and franchisors. We mix with like-minded franchisees from similar and different sectors to ours. We access the website which not only to follow the trends in the franchising sector but to access franchising specific training. Our membership to the bfa is inexpensive but worth its weight in gold.”
