About St Pauls

St Pauls is a small residential care home in Dinnington, near Rotherham, with two beds. It is operated by Swanton Care & Community, part of Autism North Limited, and specialises in supporting younger adults with learning disabilities and mental health needs.

The home received a Good rating following its most recent CQC inspection in October 2021. Its intimate size means residents receive personalised attention in a domestic setting rather than a larger institutional environment. Located in a residential area of South Yorkshire, the home is accessible to local amenities and services in the Dinnington and Rotherham area.

The provider's focus on both learning disabilities and mental health support suggests the home is equipped to address complex needs that may overlap these areas. This smaller-scale provision may be suitable for individuals who require specialist support but benefit from a quieter, more home-like care environment.
