About Us
Here at Portland Road, we provide residential care for adults in the heart of Hove, Brighton and Hove. We are proud to have received an Outstanding rating from the Care Quality Commission, which reflects the genuine commitment our team brings to the people we support every single day.
We specialise in residential care, mental health support and respite care, which means we work with a wide range of individuals and their families. Whether someone is moving in with us permanently or joining us for a shorter stay to give their loved ones a break, we take the time to get to know each person properly. Understanding what matters to someone, how they like to spend their time, and what makes them feel at home shapes everything we do here.
Mental health sits at the centre of much of our work, and we approach this with thoughtfulness and without judgement. We know that living with mental health challenges can affect every part of a person's life, and we aim to create an environment where people feel safe, respected and genuinely listened to.
Respite care is something we take just as seriously as long term support. Families and carers often carry an enormous amount, and we want the time their loved one spends with us to feel reassuring and comfortable rather than simply a stopgap.
We are based in Hove, and being part of this community matters to us. We encourage the people we support to stay connected to the local area and to the things that bring them joy, whether that is familiar places, people they know or new experiences they would like to try.
