About Cherre Residential Care

Cherre Residential Care is a residential care home in Leicester, supporting adults who have a learning disability, autistic adults, people with mental health needs and people with physical disabilities. We also offer respite stays for people who need support for a shorter period. The people who live here call it home, and our job is to help each of them live the life they choose within it, with as much independence as they want and as much support as they need. We help with personal care where it is wanted, with cooking, laundry and shopping, with medication and appointments, and with managing money and correspondence. We also support people to get out into Leicester, to keep up the activities they enjoy and to stay close to family and friends. Communication and routine sit at the centre of the work. Learning how a person asks for help, how they show that they are unhappy and what settles them when a day goes badly matters more than any written policy, so we take time over it and write plans in a form the person can actually use. Mental health support is provided alongside colleagues in local health teams where that is helpful, and for people with physical disabilities we pay attention to mobility and to what makes independence possible. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good.
