About Schankin House
Schankin House supports children and young people with learning disabilities, autism and associated complex needs through residential care. Registered children’s homes accommodate young people aged 7 to 18, including those with communication, mobility or health needs.
Support focuses on independence, social and life skills, positive opportunities and participation in the community. The wider service also provides short breaks, day provision, after-school and weekend sessions, holiday activities and family support for children aged 8 to 18. Its activity centre is Ofsted registered and approved by Barking and Dagenham local authority. Community-based short-break day provision gives families structured support beyond the residential home.

How much does Schankin House cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Schankin House for its weekly fee. As a guide, Barking and Dagenham council paid on average £1,940 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.
