About Charlton Road

Charlton Road is a residential care home in Greenwich, London. We support adults with a learning disability and autistic adults, people with a physical disability, people with a visual or hearing impairment, younger adults and older people, and we also offer respite stays. With that mix under one roof, support has to be built around each individual rather than around a house routine, and we work at that rather than claiming it. We spend time learning how each person communicates, what they can do for themselves, where they want a hand and what tends to make a day harder, and we write support plans with the person in language that is genuinely theirs. For autistic residents, predictable routines and attention to sensory needs usually matter more than anything else we do. Where sight or hearing is poor, we adapt how we communicate and check that aids are working. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is requires improvement. We are not going to talk around that. There is an agreed plan for the areas that were identified, we are working through it and being held to it, and anyone considering the home should ask us directly what has changed and what has not yet.
