About Little Smugglers
Little Smugglers provides residential support for younger adults with learning disabilities. The service is part of Consensus, whose wider support model also covers autism and complex needs through residential and supported living services.
Support is intended to help people develop fuller, more independent lives, with referral information focused on individual needs, aspirations and suitable placements. Families and professionals can use the service’s referral pathway to explore whether the setting matches a person’s requirements. The home is registered for learning disabilities and younger adults, rather than nursing care. Little Smugglers provides residential support for people with learning disabilities within a broader specialist care organisation.

Questions families ask
How much does Little Smugglers cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Little Smugglers for its weekly fee. As a guide, West Sussex council paid on average £1,867 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.
Who pays for a place in this home?
Ask Little Smugglers whether it takes residents funded by West Sussex council and what it charges people who pay for themselves. In England the council may help after a needs assessment and a financial assessment if savings and assets are below £23,250 (2026 to 2027 rules). People whose needs are mainly health needs may qualify for NHS Continuing Healthcare, which pays the full fee.
