Supported living in Harrow

Harrow is our largest site: five modern houses and 20 bedrooms on one private, gated road in HA1, a few minutes from Harrow town centre.

Supported living in Harrow is hard to find at scale, and harder to find in decent buildings. Our Harrow development is a purpose-suited block of five houses — four large bedrooms and three bathrooms in each, twenty bedrooms in total — set behind gates on a private road with parking and outdoor space.

Because the five houses sit together, we can match people to a house rather than squeezing them into whatever bed is free. Somebody stepping down from a ward who can't tolerate noise goes into a quieter house; somebody working towards their own flat goes into a house geared around cooking, budgeting and getting out to work or college.

The site was run as supported living accommodation for three years before we took it on, including publicly funded placements commissioned locally, so the layout, the access and the compliance history are all built for care — including stairlifts for tenants with mobility needs.

Everything else works the way it does everywhere we operate: adults aged 18–65 with mental health needs, small consistent staff teams, medication support, and a CQC-registered service governed by the fundamental standards.

Our homes

What our Harrow homes are like

Five newly built houses on one gated road in HA1 — brick fronts, private parking, gardens and patios, and four large bedrooms in each house.

20 bedrooms across five houses

Four bedrooms and three bathrooms per house, so people share with three others at most and never queue for a bathroom.

Modern, premium-standard interiors

Open-plan kitchen and dining, proper living rooms, bright bedrooms with skylights, and bathrooms and wet rooms finished to a standard people are proud to have visitors see.

Accessible where it's needed

Stairlifts are fitted for tenants with mobility or physical health needs, so a physical difficulty doesn't rule someone out of supported living in Harrow.

Private gated road, parking and gardens

Secure, quiet and off the main road, with outdoor space at the back — safe for tenants who feel exposed, and easy for staff, family and professionals to visit.

Safe homes

Every Harrow home is safe, compliant and regularly inspected

Property compliance is a wellbeing issue, not a filing exercise. Here's what that means in practice across our Harrow homes.

  • Fire detection, emergency lighting and drills tested and recorded across all five Harrow houses
  • Annual gas safety certificates and five-yearly electrical condition reports for every property on the site
  • Legionella risk assessment with recorded monthly water temperature checks
  • Waking night or sleep-in cover on site where assessed risk requires it, with an on-call manager every night
  • Stairlifts, alarms and equipment serviced under a documented maintenance schedule
  • Same-day repair triage — heating, hot water and door locks are treated as safety, not maintenance

Local care

Care that stays local in Harrow

People do better when the GP, the pharmacy, the care coordinator and the support team are all within a few miles of the front door.

  • GP, dentist and pharmacy registration in Harrow within the first week of moving in
  • Escorted attendance at CMHT, depot, clozapine and psychology appointments across north west London
  • Medication support from full administration through to independent self-management with checks
  • Joint working with Harrow Council adult social care, housing and hospital discharge teams
  • Section 117 aftercare, CTO and safeguarding processes handled by managers who do this every week
  • Benefits, budgeting and tenancy paperwork completed with the tenant, not for them

Local relationships in Harrow

Harrow is well connected and we use that: Harrow-on-the-Hill and Harrow & Wealdstone stations, buses across the borough, and clinical teams reachable without a long journey. Our managers deal directly with borough social workers and discharge coordinators, so a referral gets a straight answer rather than a waiting list.

Being part of the community

For tenants, ordinary life in Harrow is right there — St Ann's and St George's shopping centres, Harrow Leisure Centre, Harrow College and Uxbridge College campuses, Headstone Manor park, temples, mosques and churches across one of the most diverse boroughs in London, plus volunteering and paid work in the town centre.
