About Lansdowne Road

Lansdowne Road is a residential care home in Brighton and Hove, operated by the Frances Taylor Foundation. It provides accommodation together with personal care for its residents. The CQC's latest findings on the service are set out below.

Lansdowne Road, operated by the Frances Taylor Foundation, a faith-based organisation, provides accommodation alongside nursing or personal care. The service cares for residents who receive both accommodation and care as a single integrated package. During the inspection, inspectors evaluated both the premises and the quality of care provided.

The care home was designed and built before current best practice guidance was established, but has since developed in alignment with contemporary standards and values that prioritise person-centred support.
