A steady home. A real say in what happens next.
Care Quest Group provides semi-independent accommodation and support services across London and Essex, the kind of place people are genuinely glad to come back to at the end of the day.
Housing is the easy part. What happens inside it is what matters.
Care Quest Group was set up around a fairly simple idea: care leavers, and adults who need a bit more support to live independently, deserve somewhere that actually feels like theirs, not a waiting room for the next stage of life.
We provide semi-independent and independent living support for care leavers aged 18 and over, and tailored support services for adults who need extra help to stay safe, settled and in control of their own lives. We are not a regulated care provider; our support sits alongside, rather than in place of, any statutory or clinical care someone already receives.
More about our approach
Support that flexes as people's lives do
No two placements look the same, because no two people are the same. Here's the shape of what we offer.
Move-on & tenancy support
Practical help finding and settling into move-on accommodation, with a keyworker on hand and a support plan built around each young person's own goals.
18+ semi-independent living
Move-on accommodation with a lighter touch of support in areas such as budgeting, tenancy skills, healthcare, education and work, for young people ready to take on more themselves.
Support services for adults
Practical, person-centred support for vulnerable adults who want to live independently but need help with day-to-day tasks, appointments or staying connected.
Life skills & independence
Cooking, budgeting, tenancy readiness, using public transport, opening a bank account: the unglamorous groundwork that makes independent living stick.
Safeguarding & wellbeing
Enhanced DBS-checked staff, robust safeguarding procedures, and a genuine focus on mental health and emotional wellbeing, not just a roof over someone's head.
Education, training & work
Help getting into college, apprenticeships or employment, and staying there, because a support plan means little without somewhere to put it into practice.
Homely, not institutional
Every property is a genuine home in an ordinary residential street, not a facility. Bedrooms are furnished individually, communal spaces are comfortable and lived-in, and every property meets current fire safety standards along with local HMO licensing and planning requirements where they apply.
We review every property regularly against our own internal standards as well as the regulatory ones, because a building that merely passes inspection isn't the same as a building someone actually wants to live in.
