About Shining Star
Residential support for people with learning disabilities is provided at Shining Star, a care home registered for learning disability care. The service is suited to people who need accommodation and day-to-day support within that specialist scope.
Its wider organisational context includes accessible communication resources and guidance on social care, health and housing. The confirmed focus remains learning disability support rather than general older-person care, making residential support for people with learning disabilities the clearest description of the service.

Questions families ask
How much does Shining Star cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Shining Star for its weekly fee. As a guide, Redbridge council paid on average £943 a week for a residential care place for people aged 65 and over in 2024-2025, against £982 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 Shining Star whether it takes residents funded by Redbridge 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.
