Caremark National Annual Conference 2026
David Meade was delighted to deliver the closing keynote at the Caremark National Annual Conference 2026, held at the Hilton Hotel, St George’s Park in Burton-on-Trent. Caremark is one of the UK’s leading home care franchise businesses, providing high quality care services to individuals in communities across the country. With a network of dedicated franchise owners, the organisation plays a vital role in supporting people to live independently while maintaining dignity, safety, and wellbeing.
This year’s conference brought together business owners from across the Caremark network, each responsible for delivering care services in their local communities. It was a unique and important audience. Every person in the room was not only a leader but also an entrepreneur, making decisions that directly impact both their teams and the individuals they support. For that reason, the expectation for meaningful, practical value was exceptionally high.
Closing Keynote Speaker
David had the honour of delivering the prestigious closing keynote, a role that required both energy and insight to bring the event to a powerful conclusion. Preparation for the session began well in advance, with David working closely with UK Managing Director, David Glover. Throughout the briefing process, David Glover’s passion for the organisation’s mission was clear. His commitment to delivering the highest possible standard of care, regardless of location, set the tone for the entire event and provided a strong foundation for the keynote.
David also collaborated closely with the event production team at P S Events, a global consultancy known for delivering world class experiences for major brands. Working with Yin Khoo, Rachel Garwood, Lucy Nicholls, and Rebecca Johnson, he invested significant time in understanding the culture, priorities, and ambitions of the Caremark network. This preparation ensured that the session would be tailored specifically to the needs of the audience and aligned with the organisation’s broader vision.
Be The Best
The ‘Be The Best’ keynote focused on the power of belief in times of change. David explored the science and psychology of high performance, with a particular emphasis on how expectations shape outcomes. He demonstrated how leaders can influence performance by setting clear standards, building confidence, and fostering a culture of accountability and ownership.
Given the nature of the audience, the session was designed to be highly practical. David shared tools and techniques that business owners could apply immediately within their own operations, from motivating teams to improving service delivery and strengthening customer relationships. The emphasis throughout was on action. Not just ideas, but behaviours that can be implemented straight away to create meaningful impact.
The session was also highly interactive. David’s energetic style ensured that the audience was fully engaged from start to finish. Participants were invited to contribute, reflect, and take part in exercises that brought the content to life. The room was filled with energy, conversation, and a shared commitment to improving outcomes for the people they serve.
As the session built towards its conclusion, the atmosphere in the room was one of focus and optimism. David was delighted to hand the microphone back to David Glover to close the conference, with the audience energised and ready to take forward the ideas they had explored.
A Business that Cares
Reflecting on the event, David said,
“These business owners were so focused on the areas that matter, focused on the quality of their care and service, focused on developing their people, and overall focusing on believing in themselves and their brand. It was an honour to join them all, and I am excited to see the bright future that they will share together.”
The response from the audience was overwhelmingly positive, with feedback highlighting both the relevance and the energy of the session. David noted that he was genuinely blown away by the reception and expressed his hope to work with Caremark again in the future.
The conference closed with a strong sense of purpose and momentum, reinforcing Caremark’s commitment to delivering exceptional care across the UK and continuing to support the communities they serve.
