Questions families ask
Who lives in the homes?
The homes support adults with learning disabilities and autism who need a stable, quiet and predictable environment, with round-the-clock support from trained care teams.
How long is the minimum lease term?
The minimum lease term is five years, with the organisation taking responsibility for operational and day-to-day maintenance of the property.
Do landlords manage repairs and maintenance?
No. Green Light takes on full operational and day-to-day maintenance responsibilities, keeping the property compliant with CQC safety, cleanliness and repair standards.
How much does Poldark cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Poldark for its weekly fee. As a guide, Cornwall council paid on average £2,062 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.
