Focus Care Supported Living is a CQC-rated Outstanding provider of supported living services for adults with learning disabilities, autism, acquired brain injuries, mental health conditions, and complex needs. Established in 2008 and headquartered in Peterborough, we support individuals to live as independently as possible in their own tenancies across England — including Cambridgeshire, Suffolk, Essex, London, East Sussex, and the West Midlands.
Supported living means an individual holds their own tenancy (or licence to occupy) and receives tailored care and support within that home. Unlike residential care, the person has full rights as a tenant — they choose how their home looks, who visits, and what they do each day. Focus Care works in partnership with social landlords to make sure both the accommodation and the support are right for each person.
Focus Care Supported Living is rated Outstanding by the Care Quality Commission. The CQC assesses services against five key areas — Safe, Caring, Effective, Responsive, and Well-led — and our Outstanding rating reflects consistently high performance across all of them. You can read our full inspection report on our CQC Reports page or directly on the CQC website.
We currently provide supported living services in Cambridgeshire (including Peterborough), Suffolk, Essex, London, East Sussex, and the West Midlands. We are actively expanding, so if you need a specialist provider in an area we don’t yet cover, contact our National Operations Director to discuss possibilities.
We accept referrals for adults (18+) with learning disabilities, autism spectrum conditions, acquired brain injuries, mental health disorders, challenging behaviours, and profound or complex needs. Referrals typically come from local authority commissioners, social workers, hospitals, or families. You can get in touch through our contact page or by calling 01733 261233 to start a conversation about a specific individual.
Before anyone moves in, our experienced managers and clinical team carry out a thorough assessment. This involves meeting the individual (and their family or advocates where appropriate), reviewing existing care plans and health records, and understanding their preferences, routines, and goals. From that, we build a personalised support plan so the transition into their new home is as smooth and well-prepared as possible.
