About Charlton House
Charlton House provides community-based rehabilitation and residential support for adults with intellectual disabilities, autism, mental health conditions and complex needs. Its specialist services include supported living, residential care, positive behaviour support, step-down services and a women’s service offering residential rehabilitation.
Support is built around personal outcomes, independence and community participation. Staff work with individuals, families and partner organisations to create care plans, and residents have their own bedrooms to personalise. The women’s service includes an experienced female care team, female-only groups and supervised visiting facilities for parents. An on-site activities coordinator provides a varied programme.

Questions families ask
What are the requirements for supported living?
They assess each person individually. Applicants need to keep themselves safe with little supervision and have learned independent living skills.
Do residents have their own bedrooms?
Yes. Each service user has their own bedroom, which they can personalise.
What support is provided in supported living?
Each service user has a support worker who checks in regularly and helps them achieve their agreed weekly goals.
Do residents have access to advocacy services?
Yes. Each service user can access advocacy services, with links to local advocacy groups and services.
Does the women’s service offer female-only groups?
Yes. Women’s services include female-only groups and peer support opportunities.
How much does Charlton House cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Charlton House for its weekly fee. As a guide, Greenwich council paid on average £1,020 a week for a residential care place for people aged 65 and over in 2024-2025, against £982 across England (GOV.UK adult social care finance report). People who pay for their own care are usually charged more than councils pay.
