About Us

At SENSE, located on Broadgate Lane in Peterborough, we provide residential care for a wide range of individuals, and we take genuine pride in the community we have built here. Our home supports older people, younger adults, and those living with learning disabilities or autism, as well as individuals with visual or hearing impairments. We also offer respite care for those who need a short break or temporary support.

We were pleased to receive an Outstanding rating from the Care Quality Commission, and while that recognition means a great deal to us, what matters most is what we hear from the people who live here and the families who trust us with their loved ones. That feedback shapes everything we do.

Life at SENSE is built around the individual. We spend time getting to know each person properly, understanding their history, their preferences, and what a good day looks like for them. Care is not one size fits all, and we would never treat it that way. Whether someone is with us long term or staying for a short period of respite, they receive the same level of attention and respect.

Our team works closely with families, health professionals, and local support networks to make sure everyone around a resident is informed and involved. We believe good communication is just as important as good care, and we work hard to maintain open, honest relationships with everyone connected to our home.

Peterborough is very much part of who we are. We value our place in the local community and encourage residents to stay connected to the things and people that matter to them, whether that is through activities, outings, or simply having visitors they love spend time with them here.

If you would like to find out more about life at SENSE, we would love to hear from you.
