Report published 27 October 2025
“Date of assessment: 22 September 2025 to 7 October 2025. The Lawrence is a residential care home, providing support to younger adults, some of whom were living with a learning disability and/or autism. The service can support up to 14 people, and at the time of our assessment 14 people were living at the service. We assessed the service due to the length of time since the last inspection.”
“We have assessed the service against ‘Right support, right care, right culture’ guidance to make judgements about whether the provider guaranteed people with a learning disability and autistic people respect, equality, dignity, choices, independence and good access to local communities that most people take for granted. We found people received care and support in accordance with the principles of this guidance.”
