Rehability UK

What Rehability UK does

Rehability UK Community Ltd is a UK private limited company (registered in England, company number 09636341) that provides supported living, residential care, and day services for adults with learning disabilities, autism, mental health needs, physical disabilities, and forensic or complex behavioural needs. The company operates across 11 UK regions (West Midlands, Gloucestershire, Yorkshire, Berkshire, Leicestershire, Worcestershire, Hertfordshire, Devon, Dorset, Surrey) through over 20 named services, two wholly-owned subsidiaries (Accredo and Inclusion Care), and regional brand identities. Service delivery is grounded in a person-centred care model underpinned by Positive Behaviour Support (PBS) methodology, digital care planning via the Nourish Care platform, and specialised environments including sensory rooms and assistive technology such as the Inspired Inspirations Tiny Tablet.

The business operates a B2B/B2G commissioned-care revenue model funded primarily through local authority social services, NHS continuing healthcare, direct payments, and individual budgets. GTM is referral-driven through a formal 5-step website referral process, complemented by awards participation (Rehability UK Awards, Great British Care Awards, Learning Disability & Autism Awards) and a multi-channel content strategy (Social Care Chronicles podcast on Spotify/YouTube, active presence across LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, X, Bluesky, and Threads). Pricing is not publicly disclosed; care packages are contracted on hourly or residential bases.

Beyond regulated care, the company has begun productising its internal expertise—most notably by delivering Oliver McGowan Mandatory Training on Learning Disability and Autism (Tier 1 and Tier 2) to external organisations—and has invested in community partnerships (WWT Slimbridge, Anna Kennedy Online, Miniature Shetland Therapy Ponies, Anjum Design as exclusive architect). Recent strategic actions include the June 2024 launch of Chatha Court in Walsall as a purpose-built 35-flat mental health step-down facility and the opening of John Gaffney House in Bradford with nine supported living apartments.

Direct peers

• Achieve Together: Specialist provider of supported living and residential care for adults with learning disabilities, autism, and complex behaviour across the UK. Closely comparable given overlapping service portfolio (supported living, residential, day services) and similar complex-needs positioning.

Comparable in person-centred operating model and regional coverage, though structured as a not-for-profit.

• The Hesley Group: Specialist provider of residential and supported living services for adults with autism, learning disabilities, and complex behaviours. Highly comparable given the niche focus on high-acuity presentations and dedicated positive-behaviour-support frameworks.
• Dimensions UK: Specialist provider of person-centred support for adults with learning disabilities and autism, including supported living, residential, and community services. Comparable in personalised care approach and family/carer engagement.
