About Cheney Row

We at Cheney Row are a residential care home nestled within the vibrant community of London, offering supportive residential care for adults with learning disabilities and autism in the borough of Waltham Forest. Our home has been thoughtfully created to be a place where residents feel genuinely at ease, valued, and understood. Situated in the E postcode area of east London, our setting benefits from the warmth and diversity that this part of the capital is known for. The local surroundings offer easy access to community amenities, green spaces, and transport links, allowing residents to remain connected to the wider world whilst enjoying the comfort and security of a place they can truly call home. Our specialism lies in supporting younger adults living with learning disabilities and autism, and we also welcome those in need of respite care. In practice, this means we take the time to understand each person as an individual, building tailored routines and support plans that reflect their preferences, communication styles, aspirations, and sensory needs. We believe that good care is not simply about meeting daily needs, but about championing independence, encouraging personal growth, and celebrating the small moments that make life meaningful. For families, this brings the reassurance that their loved one is being cared for by a team committed to dignity, patience, and respect. Respite care at our home offers families and regular carers the opportunity to take a well earned break, safe in the knowledge that their loved one is in a welcoming environment where they can relax, socialise, and enjoy new experiences during their stay. Cheney Row is currently listed as Not Yet Rated by the Care Quality Commission, which simply means the home is at an early stage in its regulatory journey and awaiting its first full inspection. We remain fully committed to meeting and exceeding the standards expected of a modern, person centred care home, and we welcome open conversations with families about our approach, our ethos, and the way we support the people who live with us. Choosing the right home for a loved one is one of the most important decisions a family can make, and we understand the care and consideration it deserves. We warmly invite you to get in touch, ask questions, and arrange a visit so you can see for yourself the calm, compassionate atmosphere we work hard to create every day at Cheney Row.
