At Companies House, the company is listed as active, its accounts are filed on time, its confirmation statement is overdue, it has 7 active directors and there is no insolvency history.

Track record
Registered in September 2019, it has 7 years on the CQC register.
So far CQC has published one overall rating: Good, in July 2021.
The rating is 5 years old. CQC decides when to return based on risk, so age alone is not a warning sign; still, ask who the manager is now.
Costs to expect
We estimate visits from Deafblind UK at £30–£37 an hour (visiting care, weekdays), based on published prices in the region. As an example, an hour each morning and a 30-minute evening call comes to about £350 a week.
For live-in care, expect around £1,450–£1,770 a week in this region.
If savings are under the upper limit (£23,250 in England), Peterborough Council may pay part of the cost after a free care needs assessment.
