About Livingstone House
Livingstone House provides 24-hour residential care for adults with learning disabilities and complex needs, including people with severe or profound learning disabilities and behaviours that may challenge. The home is registered for learning disabilities and younger adults without nursing care.
The service is part of a wider specialist provider offering adult residential care, supported living, PMLD care and day services across the South East. Its homes are intended to feel like genuine homes rather than institutions, with care tailored around the person. Livingstone House therefore suits families seeking 24-hour residential care for adults with learning disabilities and a structured, full-time support environment.

Questions families ask
How much does Livingstone House cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Livingstone House for its weekly fee. As a guide, Surrey council paid on average £2,134 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 Livingstone House whether it takes residents funded by Surrey 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.
