About Christie Home

Christie Home is a residential care home in Romford supporting adults with a learning disability, autistic adults and people with mental health needs, including many younger adults. This is a home for people with plans of their own rather than somewhere to be looked after and left. We support people to do as much for themselves as they can and want to, whether that is cooking, sorting out their own washing, managing money, using local buses, keeping a course or a job going, or simply deciding how their own day runs. Where a lot of help is needed we give it without fuss, and where somebody wants us to step back we do that too. Because the people living here have very different needs, we plan support individually and pay close attention to how each person communicates, what unsettles them and what helps them settle again. Somewhere quiet to go when the house feels busy matters as much as anything in a care plan. For residents with mental health needs we keep the household calm and predictable and work closely with local services and doctors. Respite stays are available. Families and advocates are kept as involved as the person wants. Please get in touch if you would like to see the house.
