About Us

We are 51 Leonard Road, a residential care home in Waltham Forest, north east London, supporting adults with learning disabilities and autistic adults. We offer permanent places and respite stays.

A house for a small number of people means support can be genuinely individual rather than a compromise between competing demands, and staff come to know everybody properly rather than only what is written in a file.

We try to keep the place feeling like a home. People have their own rooms and their own belongings, decide how they spend the day, and are supported to do as much for themselves as they can manage. Where somebody needs help to make a decision, we give the help rather than making the decision for them.

Predictability does a great deal of the work, particularly for autistic people. Saying what will happen and when, and then being right, is worth more than reassurance. Where a routine matters to somebody we protect it rather than asking them to be flexible for our convenience, and where the sensory environment causes difficulty we change the environment.

Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good.
