About Glover House
Person-centred residential support at Glover House is aimed at adults and children with learning disabilities, autism, physical disabilities and sensory needs. The home’s approach places support and choice at the centre, with plans shaped around what matters to each individual and developed with families or representatives where appropriate.
Glover House forms part of a wider care group with services for autistic people, people with learning disabilities and individuals who display challenging behaviour. Staff investigate possible causes of challenging behaviour and develop creative ways to reduce related difficulties. The support model focuses on independence, positive outcomes and participation in everyday life.

How much does Glover House cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Glover House for its weekly fee. As a guide, Kent council paid on average £1,834 a week for a residential care place for adults aged 18 to 64 in 2024-2025, against £1,883 across England (GOV.UK adult social care finance report). People who pay for their own care are usually charged more than councils pay.
