About I Decide Inclusive Living
I Decide Inclusive Living is a home care agency in Ilford, supporting people in their own homes across Redbridge and the surrounding area. We work with older people and younger adults, with people living with dementia, with people who have a learning disability, with autistic people, with people living with mental health needs and with people who have a physical disability. The name states the principle and we try to live up to it. The person decides. Support exists to make a chosen life workable rather than to manage somebody tidily in the background. So the first conversation is about what a person wants their week to look like and what they would rather keep doing themselves, and only then about what help is needed. In practice that covers personal care, medication managed and recorded properly, meals cooked, help about the house, support to move safely indoors, and help to get out and stay connected. For younger adults it often means support arranged around work, college or a tenancy rather than a timetable that assumes an empty diary. Communication is where we put most of our effort. Some of the people we support do not use speech, and nearly every serious problem we are called in to resolve began with nobody slowing down enough to listen. For people living with dementia we send the same carers to the same homes, because familiarity achieves what explanation cannot. The Care Quality Commission has not yet given us an overall rating. Talk to us and we will be realistic about what we can offer.

More about the care at I Decide Inclusive Living
Dementia Care at I Decide Inclusive Living
An inspection rating is still to come for this Ilford agency, registered in September 2026. Dementia care is on the registration, and what tends to help at home is familiar faces, a calm pace and a routine that does not shift. The agency puts most of its effort into communication, and says some of the people it supports do not use speech. Since no report exists, continuity is worth agreeing in writing rather than assuming. Ask whether the same small team is guaranteed and how many carers a person would meet in a month. Ask how carers respond to distress and how visits are reviewed as dementia advances.
Home Care at I Decide Inclusive Living
An hour of home care in London commonly costs £30 to £36, which is indicative rather than this agency's own figure. Redbridge is the council to approach about an assessment and any funded hours. Because care is bought by the visit, the weekly total follows the number of calls and their length. The agency says support exists to make a chosen life workable rather than to manage somebody tidily in the background. Seven categories of care sit on the registration, which is a broad remit for a new service. Ask about minimum visit lengths, how rotas are arranged and what notice a change requires.
Older Person Care at I Decide Inclusive Living
Chosen Care Group took this registration on 29 September 2026, so no inspection rating exists. I Decide Inclusive Living is registered for older person care in people's own homes across Redbridge. The practical work it lists includes personal care, medication managed and recorded properly, meals cooked and help about the house. Its stated principle is that the person decides, so the first conversation is about what somebody wants their week to look like and what they would rather keep doing themselves. Ask how early and how late a visit can be arranged and who covers for an absent carer. Ask whether anything runs overnight, because most home care finishes with a bedtime call.
Mental Health at I Decide Inclusive Living
Redbridge would carry out the assessment and may fund support of this kind. Mental health is on the agency's registration, and for an adult at home stability, a visit that arrives when promised and dignity usually matter most. The agency's first conversation is said to be about what the person wants their week to contain. Ask what training carers have and who can be reached in a crisis.
Younger Adults at I Decide Inclusive Living
Support arranged around work, college or a tenancy is how this agency describes its work with younger adults. That matters because home care rounds generally assume an empty diary, which it says it does not. Younger adults are one of the seven categories on a registration dated 29 September 2026. Ask how far visit times can flex and how often the plan is reviewed.
Learning Disability and Autism at I Decide Inclusive Living
Learning disability and autism are among the seven categories on this registration. The agency says the person decides, and that support should make a chosen life workable. Councils normally commission this kind of support with reviews at set points, so ask who attends. Ask too how communication, routines and sensory needs are recorded.
Physical Disability at I Decide Inclusive Living
Among the practical tasks listed is help to move safely indoors. Physical disability is on the registration, and since visits happen in someone's own home the equipment and adaptations belong to the household. Hoists, rails and bathing aids are therefore matters for an occupational therapist as well as the agency. Ask how carers are trained in moving and handling and how risks are recorded.
